Default

possible jobs-

Something where you can self pace your work so as to take stretch breaks
Something with a variety of tasks that you can self monitor your actions


most likely you will have some sort of restrictions after the surgery- possibly-
no overhead work -maybe even reaching / holding things out in front
no lifting of a certain weight/weight limits
no repetitive


But does the Dr say you are able to work at all??
There should be some modifications or restrictions at the very least.

many places will have you do PT/ physio and they should send a report to Dr as to your how you are functioning and if improvement or not.

there are also FCE {functional capacity exams} tests that will show what you can actually do or not do.
