When you have surgery on your lumbar spine, you usually can’t go down to the floor at the beginning. For bowel movements, you can use a stool dispenser in bed, and for urination, you can choose to use a catheter in many cases. If the condition is better 3-5 days after surgery and the catheter is removed, urination can be done in bed through a urinal. Depending on the lumbar spine surgery, the time to go to the floor after surgery may vary. In the case of lumbar disc herniation surgery, when the recovery is better 1-2 weeks after surgery, you can wear a lumbar brace to move on the floor and urinate and defecate at the same time. If a fracture of the lumbar spine is operated on, you can gradually move to the ground and urinate and defecate when you recover better in 3-4 weeks after surgery. It is better to choose a bidet to avoid squatting after getting up to defecate.
