L2 vertebral body fracture, depending on the specific conditions of the choice of conservative or surgical treatment, after regular conservative treatment or surgical treatment can achieve satisfactory results.
For L2 vertebral fracture, if the fracture is minor and the condition is not serious, or if surgery is not an option for the patient for various reasons, the fracture can be healed through conservative treatment. The mainstay of conservative treatment is strict bed rest for 2 to 3 months and the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as Celecoxib, for pain relief.
If the fracture is severe, difficult to tolerate the pain of conservative treatment, able to accept surgery, and have the requirement of getting down to the ground as soon as possible, surgical treatment is recommended as much as possible. Surgical treatment can be divided into percutaneous vertebroplasty, traditional nail-rod system internal fixation and other ways. After surgery, the patient can go down to the ground as early as possible, which is significantly less painful than conservative treatment.
It is recommended that patients consult a regular hospital in a timely manner, follow the doctor’s instructions, and do not blindly use medication.
