A member asked:
My lumbar compression fractures are stable what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means that: it will not move around and cause further damage. It also means that it will heal given enough time. Most important thing is to prevent recurrence by avoiding activity that caused the injury and strengthening your bones.
