Shower while wearing the collar
Click here for surgeons of cervical fusion surgery at hospitals of Pune in India. You may shower while wearing the collar. Then lie in bed and remove the collar so a family member can replace the foam pads. The soiled pads can be laundered. If you have any problems with your collar/brace or feel it needs adjustment, call the orthotics facility where you were fitted before surgery.
Medications
A prescription for pain medication, if needed, will be provided when you leave the hospital. If you had a bone graft, do not take any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications for six weeks after surgery. Studies have shown that these medications can interfere with bone graft healing. You can apply ice or warm, moist compresses to your bone graft site and/or shoulders to alleviate soreness. In the case of international patients, surgeons of cervical fusion surgery at hospitals of Pune in India is usually prompted by the desire – or need – to have procedures done on the cheap in industrialized cities.
