My grandfather has scoliosis disease, in peacetime not only pain, but also inconvenient activities, and later carried out the treatment of surgery, the following and you introduce how to care for scoliosis surgery?

How does spine side bend operation nurse

First of all, in the first few months (at least half a year) after the operation, when you get up, you must ask others to help you get up. Don't force yourself to get up sideways, because it's very painful and hard to get up (most people can't imagine). It takes a few minutes from getting up to sitting upright. When you get up, the force direction of the spine is opposite to the expected direction of the orthopedics itself, which is absolutely bad for recovery. If there is no one to help, try to lie on your stomach first, then get out of bed with your legs first, and then climb up slowly. Of course, for patients with scoliosis, it is not easy, so it is best to have someone to help.

Secondly, when lying down, try to lie flat, less lateral, keep the body straight. I think it's also very important for recovery, especially in the early stage of surgery, the bone is in the period of forced correction, try not to give it the opposite force, correction is very difficult, but it's relatively easy to pull it back, even if it can't be bent here, it's possible to bend it in other places as compensation.

Finally, after you can get down to the ground, you should stay in bed as much as possible and stand less. Before the spine is shaped, standing or sitting for a long time will exert a great pull on the spine. It has to support the body, so it will certainly develop along the natural bending direction, which is no doubt unfavorable to the postoperative recovery and the good expectations of patients.

matters needing attention

Patients in scoliosis surgery to carry out rehabilitation training, activities should do more limb movement, in peacetime to avoid doing body side bending, twisting, bending and other movements, activity intensity should be gradual, to avoid fatigue.
