I really don't have enough information to give you a well-informed answer. I would need to know if you disc surgery involved the neck or low back. Was there a fusion involved? What was your physical level activity prior to surgery? That said, I can give you a very generic answer. Typically, you can begin walking about 20 minutes at a comfortable, self-selected pace 3-5 days following surgery. Make sure to discuss your activity levels carefully with your surgeon. I also favor formal physical therapy following spine surgery to improved strength and flexibility in a clinically controlled environment. P. Gunnar Brolinson, DO

Good Morning,
The key with kids and sports is to allow the child to participate in sports they are excited about. Don’t force them into sports they don’t have an interest in. Sounds like you son is interested in tee ball so I’d encourage you to get him involved. Research shows that in general team sports are good for the social and emotional growth of children. So play ball!
