After cervical spondylosis surgery, it usually takes 1~3 months to have normal activities, but the exact time depends on the patient’s personal situation and the surgery method, the main surgery methods include anterior surgery and posterior surgery.

If disc replacement is performed, the motor function of the cervical spine can be preserved to a large extent, and a certain range of motion can be performed after the surgery, which is also related to the patient’s physical fitness. Usually, after the anterior surgery, normal motion can be performed after one month in case of good fixation.
2. Posterior surgery: the vertebral plate usually heals in about three months after surgery, during which time excessive activities should be avoided to avoid causing cervical spine injury, and normal activities can be resumed after three months.
