Spine Fractures – Act Fast, Heal Better 🩻 Spine Fractures: Understanding the Basics Spine fractures are serious injuries that can affect your mobility and quality of life. As your trusted orthopedic spine specialist, I am here to share key insights about recognizing, treating, and preventing spine fractures.   📌 What Are Spine Fractures? A spine fracture occurs when one or more vertebrae in the spine are damaged due to trauma, osteoporosis, or disease.   📌 Common Causes   Trauma: Car accidents, falls, or sports injuries. Osteoporosis: Weak bones, especially in older adults. Cancer: When cancer spreads to the spine, it weakens the vertebrae. 📌 Symptoms to Watch Out For   Sudden and severe back pain. Numbness or tingling in arms or legs. Difficulty standing or walking. Loss of bladder or bowel control in severe cases (emergency). 📌 Treatment Options   Non-Surgical: Bracing, pain management, and physiotherapy for stable fractures. Surgical: Procedures like vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, or spinal fusion may be necessary for severe cases. 💡 Prevention Tips:   Maintain strong bones through a calcium-rich diet and regular exercise. Use proper techniques when lifting heavy objects. Avoid high-risk activities without safety measures. 📍 Practising in Bhandup & Mulund 📩 DM us to learn more about spine fracture care or to book an appointment!
