I am having a laminectomy and fusion with pedigle screws in a week for severe disc compression and radiating pain down both legs. I have been told that diving and doing flip turns in the future may not be possible and I would like to hear of other's experiences.:confused
just take it slow after surgery. Flips turns and dives are only important at meets.
I had to re invent myself after lower back problems and stop running. I picked up swimming and I am not looking back (no pun intended). I also spend alot of time on the bicycle.
I just listen to my back and do what I can. I'm sure you will be able to swim well if you take it slow at first.
Always listen to your doctor.
