Thorasic Compression Fractures
Posted June 3rd, 2008 by alpharipperI had a work place place accident in Feb 07. Smashed my mouth, teeth and r/ Knee. I fell from a bulldozer and put my head into a steal step, knocked out, and suffered a lot of pain in the back middle and lower.
My doctor put this down to whiplash and after some many months, it started to go away. I had an op on the knee and whilst on light duties was made to baen and grind for many hours.
I felt my back spasm a number of times and stiffen. I could not walk for nearly two months after this.
Thoracic Spine Fracture
Posted February 28th, 2008 by rochejThree years ago I was rowing and the University of San Diego as a Freshman. After my first full year round season I was lifting weights during the off season trying to put weight. Well squating a significant amount of wieght for my body size, 6'4 and thin frame, my entire back gave out and started spasming. That marked the end of my crew career although I did not know it yet.

Fracture
Posted November 4th, 2007 by blaiseyycI fractured t8 and t9 and mild injuries in other parts of my spine. Workers Comp is pushing for Rehab but the 2 sessions I've had have made the pain much worse. Its been 6 weeks since injury and the pain has not improved, WCB keeps telling me its a very minor injury and that the pain is normal with rehab, is it possible the rehab could be making the injury worse?

Undiagnosed and untreated Scheuermanns Disease
Posted October 18th, 2007 by muneca2132336I did not even know I had Scheuermanns disease until I was assaulted, and received an MRI for other back injuries when I was 25 years old. I did ballet for 13 years, and even attended a session at arts school, but nobody noticed that I was a little crooked. I am now 27, and have never received any treatment for this disease, and my doctor said he would not give me surgery until I was 35 because he would have to open my chest. I have schmorl's node deformities in my t3-11 and the last time I was x-rayed my back showed a kyphosis of about 75 degrees.
