Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. There are constrictions that you need to follow. No moderate or heavy physical effort for 6 months, no weight lifting, not benging over etc. After 6 months you should have a clinical and imaging evaluation. After that maybe you can start on moderate activities. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
