After a lumbar 2 vertebrae compression fracture, most patients need about 3 months for the fracture to heal, but due to the different degree of fracture, the exact recovery time will also vary from person to person. Generally speaking, patients with lumbar 2 vertebral compression fracture adopt conservative treatment, need to rest in bed, sleep on a hard board bed, after 3 months the fracture is basically healed, you can go down to the ground, if the spinous process or transverse fracture is small, then the recovery time is relatively longer, and sometimes need a longer period of time to recover. Strenuous activities should be avoided within half a year, avoid bending and squatting. If the compression fracture is severe and spinal nerve compression occurs, surgery should be considered. Early surgery can improve the pain and numbness of the lower limbs caused by nerve compression. If necessary, hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be used after surgery to help the recovery of nerve function. In the early postoperative period, it is possible to wear a waist cuff to move around on the ground, and under normal circumstances, the fracture will basically heal in about 3 months. Patients with lumbar 2 vertebral compression fracture should actively cooperate with the doctor and choose targeted treatment measures under the doctor’s guidance.
