Former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf has been advised complete bed rest by the medical board treating him for his spinal cord problems.

According to The Nation, the medical board also recommended the former president to have his physiotherapy conducted on daily basis.

Musharraf has reportedly been advised by his doctors to go abroad for his spinal cord treatment, as it will not be possible in Pakistan.

The retired general has been shifted to his residence in Clifton, under tight security and is being examined by doctors including a cardiologist, the report adds.
