Problem description: I fell the day before yesterday. I went to the hospital for an examination and treatment immediately. I went to the hospital for a transverse process fracture. Will there be any sequelae from walking?
Question date:2020-11-18
Patient information:Age: 26 Gender: Female
Patients seen in the clinic , If it is actively treated, generally there will be no sequelae.
Because the local blood supply is still very good, most fractures can be completely healed if strict attention is paid to rest, protection and immobilization in the later stage, so there will generally be no sequelae. However, if the patient does not pay attention to active protection, it will affect the healing of the fracture. If the activity is too vigorous, it may cause the fracture to be dislocated again, and later healing will be more difficult. In patients with sequelae, the main manifestation is nonunion of the fracture, and later symptoms of persistent low back pain will appear. This is the largest sequelae of transverse process fractures seen in clinical practice.
Recommendation: Usually, pay attention to the waist not to exert too much force, and the burden is not too heavy to avoid aggravation of the condition. A fracture of the transverse process may cause waist pain. Rest more and use less waist muscles.
Recommendations are for reference only. If the problem is serious, please go to the hospital for detailed inspection
