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

After a lumbar fall, if there is only a soft tissue contusion, usually about two weeks to recover. If a fracture occurs, it takes 8-12 weeks to recover, as follows: First, after a soft tissue injury, there will be obvious pain symptoms in the lumbar area, requiring braking bed rest for about two weeks, the injury will gradually repair, and the patient will be able to resume normal life and work without leaving sequelae. Secondly, if there is a fracture after a lumbar fall, such as transverse process fracture and lumbar vertebral compression fracture, the patient needs bed rest or even surgical incision and internal fixation treatment, through the above treatment can make the patient gradually recover in 8-12 weeks. During the recovery process, the patient needs to insist on rehabilitation training to enhance the strength and intensity of the lumbar back and abdominal muscles, so as to improve the stability of the lumbar spine and lay a good foundation for future walking and work.
