Compression fracture after old age, the specific consequences should be analyzed according to the severity of the injury and recovery, can not be generalized, serious injury and recovery treatment is not good when it may be painful, weakness of the lower limbs, etc., the injury is relatively mild and recovery treatment is better old age will not hurt. 1. The severity of injury is different: for mild compression fracture, there is a possibility of full recovery. There are usually no obvious consequences in old age, and it will not have a negative impact on life. However, if the degree of compression is severe, pain and inability to move the spine with weight-bearing activities may occur in old age, resulting in weakness of the lower back and both lower limbs. If the spinal cord damage is severe, it may also cause incontinence and limited movement of the lower limbs. 2. Different recovery treatments: If compression fractures are treated and recovered well, there will be no after-effects in the later stages, and there will not be any obvious negative effects in old age. However, if the treatment and recovery of compression fracture is poor, it may affect the function of the spine, which may result in activity limitation and pain symptoms, such as lumbar pain, limitation of limb movement, etc. If the spinal cord injury is severe, the spinal cord may also be damaged, and the spinal cord may not be able to function properly. If the spinal cord injury is severe, it may also cause paralysis of the limbs. After vertebral compression fracture, the height of the vertebrae is lost and poor recovery after surgery. In old age, the stability of the intervertebral structure is destroyed, and the pressure on the nerves will cause local pain and even numbness and weakness of the lower limbs. Therefore, compression fracture needs to be treated as early as possible, regular treatment.
