What are the limits on activity after an ACDF?
I had a one level (C6-7) ACDF done in early November. I am a 43 year old male and was very active before the surgery. I teach karate, officiate college football, and officiate high school wrestling. I am also a recreational skier. My surgeon has not been very forthcoming about what my ultimate restrictions may be. Some of the things that concern me are:
- running
- getting occassionally knocked down by athletes
- getting up and down on the wrestling mat
- sparring in karate (light contact)
- doing self defense work (medium contact and being thrown)
- doing rolls (somersaults) in karate
- skiing
- general roughhousing with my kid, nieces, and nephews
Does anyone have any idea what the rest of my life might look like or is very individualized?

It is very individual. You may need to change you lifestyle somewhat, but you should be able to continue with most activities at least to some degree. Here is an excellent site that may help you.
