Establishing stability in your spine.

Comprehensive guidance on spinal fusion preparation, the extended bone healing timeline, and post-operative restrictions. Spinal fusion joins two or more vertebrae. Cervical fusion may involve neck-specific swallowing, voice, collar, and arm-symptom instructions; lumbar fusion may involve back-specific bracing, leg symptoms, and bending or lifting limits. Approach, levels, graft, and surgeon protocol change the recovery plan. Recommendations vary by surgeon, technique, medicines, comorbidities, and local pathway. Platinum Health provides general educational guidance and you should follow the specific instructions given by your physician or clinic.
