1. High sitting in bed position:
   • The best position, but avoid sitting in this position for extended periods after hospital discharge.
   • Because it increases pressure on the spinal curves of your lower back, thus making it prone to injury.
2. Sleeping Wedge position:
   • If your upper body needs to be elevated when sleeping or resting, then this alternative might help. It can increase comfort and reduce lower back pressure.
3. Tips:
   • Don't sit in one place for longer than 1-2 hours.
   • Spend more time lying down than sitting or standing. But the remaining time you should divide between walking and sitting.
   • Your body posture especially matters when sitting on the toilet so as to avoid constipation after hysterectomy.
