A member asked:
I have a vertical spinous process fracture on l2 that was just discovered on ct 7 weeks after initial gymnastics injury. pain has not improved and dr. has not found a brace to immobilize. is there a brace to immobilize, and could that help healing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tlso: The brace that would best mobilize that area is known as a rigid tlso. It could potentially help the fracture heal quicker than if no brace is used.
