Recumbency in bed may sometimes cause thrombophlebitis to develop signs are pain and selling ,redness of leg.Your treating doctor must have examined for this.
Sneezing means some allergy or infection,for which oxymetazoline nasal drops must be instilled in nose twice a day as jerks can harm the operated spine.Ask your doc. he might like to add anti-allergic tabs also
