Title: Anyone ever have a stressed vertebrae crack?
Post by: Chris on April 22, 2008, 06:57:39 PM

I went to the doctor on Tuesday and forgot that I had an X-Ray done in Feb. Was telling him of pain that I have been having for months and that's when he brought up the X-Ray. He asked if we ever went over it, I said no and proceeded to ask "Does this mean more physical therapy >:(?" He said we do not know yet and now have to have an MRI done to see where to go from there.

If you have had a stressed crack vertebrae, what did they do for you? I am not even sure how I got it. I haven't been bull riding, in a fight, or anything else with force to the back.

Wow. I bet you weren't expecting that. I don't have any experience with that. Good luck Chris. I hope they can help in some way.

I had 3 of them and all they did was give me muscle relaxers and some pain medication and bed rest 7-10 days, after that I was ok.
