I have a herniated or bulging disc. How can I avoid aggravating my symptoms while operating?

If you have a herniated disc or a bulging disc, we recommend a personalized ergonomic assessment. Optimizing seating posture, arm support, pedal positioning, and overall operating posture can help reduce spinal loading and improve comfort during surgery. Because back pain is often influenced by several factors, a comprehensive evaluation of the surgeon’s working posture should be performed to identify opportunities for ergonomic improvement. For best results, these adjustments are often combined with individualized guidance and movement assessment from a physiotherapist or ergonomics specialist.
