My bf having back and chest fracture. till how much time he cannot drive to long kilometres?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Depending on the severity of the fractures, he may not be able to drive long distances for upwards of 6 -12 weeks, mainly because of the associated pain as well as the frequent turning/twisting that is required when driving.
