Spinal fractures can cause significant pain, reduced mobility, and, in severe cases, complications affecting the spinal cord or nerves. These fractures occur when one or more vertebrae are broken or compressed, often due to trauma or underlying bone conditions. At Dr. Swaroop Chandra’s Orthopedic Clinic, we offer specialized care to diagnose, manage, and treat spinal fractures, ensuring optimal recovery and long-term spinal health.

Causes of Spinal fractures :-

Adhere to your doctor’s treatment plan, including medications, physical therapy, and any prescribed lifestyle adjustments. Proper care ensures the healing process is on track and helps prevent complications.

Follow Your Doctor’s Advice

Give your spine time to heal by following your doctor’s instructions regarding rest. Depending on the severity of your fracture, wearing a brace or support may be recommended to keep the spine stable during recovery.

Rest and Immobilization

Start physical therapy as advised by your healthcare provider to regain flexibility, strength, and mobility. Early, gentle exercises can prevent stiffness and help restore movement without overloading the healing spine.

Gentle Physical Therapy

Once your doctor clears you, gradually return to physical activity. Avoid heavy lifting and high-impact exercises during the recovery period. Focus on low-impact activities like walking or swimming to promote healing without stressing the spine.
