Can you do heavy work after a lumbar burst fracture?

Whether or not you can do heavy work after a lumbar burst fracture needs to be judged according to the specifics of the fracture. If there is no damage to the spinal cord or nerves, you can do heavy work after recovery from the fracture, but not if there is significant damage to the spinal cord or nerves.
