How long does it usually take to recover from a back injury?

It usually takes at least a month to recover from a back injury. After the fall depends on the degree of injury to the waist, if it is a soft tissue injury, it takes about 3-4 weeks to recover. If the lumbar spine is injured, and the vertebrae are not displaced, it will take two months of recuperation, during which time you can take oral blood circulation and pain relief drugs to promote fracture healing. If the fracture heals well, you can wear a lumbar brace to move around after two months of X-ray examination. If the fracture is a comminuted fracture of the lumbar spine, which is more serious, it usually requires surgery to reset the fracture and then fix it with screws, which takes about 4-6 weeks to recover, because comminuted fractures heal more slowly, so the recovery time is longer. Therefore, after a lumbar fall, further clear diagnosis and symptomatic treatment are needed at the hospital. In addition, after a patient’s lumbar fall, the organism tries to keep the lumbar region stable to avoid secondary injuries.
