How Soon Can One Resume Intercourse Post A Laminectomy?
My husband will be having a laminectomy next month. How can I assist in his recovery without enabling him, by doing too much for him? I want him to be as self sufficient as possible and I suspect he rather enjoys me doing things for him that are not in the best interest of his full recovery.

Hi,
If the operation ( laminectomy ) goes well, without complications, your husband could start most of his physical activities after one month. Weights, and long physical activity should be avoided for few months. So, you can start intercourse in about one month after laminectomy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
