I can see the problem. Imagine it visually. I even understand why it's an issue with the inability to bend forward and lack of flexibility from behind and not having long arms like an orangutan.
I have been practicing sitting very straight on the seat, using baby wipes and trying to reach behind. I've been successful but I don't know how much of my success is due to the fact I still have my L5 disc.
I think I can safely assume there is no one who will do this for you, so......how is it done?
Also in another thread I will be adding some questions the inability to straighten both legs at the same time. With ALL due respect for Dr. Gupta, he is WRONG that I can't straighten my legs due to the hip flexor/hamstring issues. I have never been able to straighten my legs at the same time since the day after my first surgery. The day before my surgery, I could.
But! (or shall I say Butt?) How does a patient wipe themselves?
