Lumbar spine fractures can take at least three months to recover. Lumbar spine fracture needs to depend on the specific circumstances of the fracture. If the fracture is simple, without displacement and no nerve compression, conservative treatment is an option. Patients mainly need to rest in bed for 8 weeks, during which time they should not go down to the ground and lie flat in bed to recuperate. At the same time, they can take oral blood circulation and pain relief drugs as prescribed by the doctor to improve local blood circulation and facilitate the healing of the fracture. If the lumbar spine injury is serious and there is a comminuted fracture, the nerve compression causes leg pain and leg numbness, this situation requires surgery to reset the fracture, while the lumbar spine is fixed with a nail rod, this situation takes three to four months to fully recover, but the elderly recovery is slower, it may take six months. In summary, the recovery time for a lumbar spine fracture needs to be judged according to the extent of the fracture damage. In addition, until the fracture is fully recovered, patients need to avoid heavy physical work, avoid sitting for a long time, avoid bending, and perform X-ray examination regularly to observe the fracture healing, and after it is fully healed, they can move appropriately.
