Study reveals posture changes after back surgery

This study looked at 72 people with lumbar stenosis, a condition where the spine narrows and causes leg pain when walking. Researchers wanted to see if decompression surgery (which relieves pressure on nerves) also improves forward-leaning posture. They measured spine alignment before and after surgery using special X-rays and compared it to how patients felt. The goal was to better understand the link between surgery, posture, and symptom relief.
