Poss spinal unstable: You may expect to have symptoms from the burst fractures for up to 2 years post injury. If you indeed sustained multiple burst fractures you may have developed significant spinal instability. This demands an evaluation with a spine surgeon along with follow-up x-rays and a current cat scan of the spine. You should not delay in being evaluated or in obtaining a second opinion.
