Hard to say.: It is hard to say, and you would definitely want to check with your surgeon. You probably had a t8 fracture and had to have a vertebrectomy and fusion. Depending on the outcome, you may very well be able tiresome activities without restriction, but you should check with your surgeon. Thank you for your fusion.
