Question

I'm a defense aspirant and had to undergo reconstruction surgery for my leg. If I regain full motion and function, will this affect my SSB medical clearance? Could it impact my leg's performance during physical tests?

While regaining full motion and function after leg reconstruction surgery is a positive sign, it doesn't automatically guarantee SSB medical clearance. The SSB medical board will assess the extent of the surgery, the recovery progress, and the overall functionality of your leg. A history of surgery is often disqualifying, but can be waived if the board is satisfied with the recovery.

I have L5 disc degeneration and my doctor recommended surgery, but I'm trying to avoid it for now. I've done 10 physiotherapy sessions with no relief yet.
