Annie Lennox has revealed that it will take her at least six months to walk normally again.
The former Eurythmics singer underwent spinal surgery for an impinged nerve earlier this month after her back "went into a spasm" while attending an AIDS conference in Mexico.
She will now need a lengthy course of physiotherapy before she can walk properly.
She is quoted as saying: "I could only drag my leg around the house. Something told me urgent action was required.
"I had micro surgery... This is the fifth time I've gone under the scalpel and each time I think it's miraculous.
"I can now walk again slowly, without the drag, but it's going to take at least six months of physiotherapy before I start to walk more normally again."
Lennox's new album, a retrospective look at her solo career, has been pushed back to next year as a result of her back problems.
