[|AI|]  Dear patient Why back surgery was done? Was it for fracture or vertebral Listless? If it was done for both purposes posterior spinal fusion is done. Mild pain In back persists till solid fusion is achieved. So I would advise radiograph of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views to look for fusion. There is no need for orthopedic bed but if you feel comfortable with it, you can use it and same is for chair.
