Fall on head from nearly 20ft high, lost 2n1/2 inches in height over the last 2years started getting pain in neck and upper back, what could be wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CS collapse: That type of injury causes severe compressive forces on the disks and rapid deterioration and loss of height, also there may have been compression fractures also. They will contribute 2 loss of height.
