Osteoporosis and Your Spine Home › Patients › Fractures/Fall Prevention › Exercise/Safe Movement › Osteoporosis and Your Spine. Your spine is made up of small bones called vertebrae. The picture of the spine shows the different regions of the spine, from the bottom (sacrum) to the top (cervical). People with osteoporosis most often break bones in the upper (thoracic) spine. When these bones break, they can cause pain, height loss and stooped or hunched posture, called kyphosis.

Transverse Process Fracture Transverse Process Fracture. A transverse process is a bony protrusion from the back of a vertebrae bone in the spine. There is one on each side of every vertebrae in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine. Transverse process fracture symptoms. Transverse process fracture of the spine include sudden pain in the back at the time of injury. There will be decreased range of motion of the affected area of the spine and pain when trying to bend or twist the affected area.

When Back Pain Is a Spine Compression Fracture Watch: Spinal Compression Fracture Video. These compression fractures can occur in vertebrae anywhere in the spine, but they tend to occur most commonly in the upper back (thoracic spine), particularly in the lower vertebrae of that section of the spine (e.g. T10, T11, T12). They rarely occur above the T7 level of the spine.

Boathouse Doc: Rib Stress Fracture Not to be facetious, but the best way to keep them rowing is to avoid the injury in the first place. The cause of the vast majority of rib pain is a stress fracture. It is an overuse injury resulting from the torque applied to the ribs by the serratus anterior external oblique muscles with each rowing stroke. Although this is a term that is commonly used, an intercostal muscle strain is rarely seen.

A Patient's Guide to Compression Fracture Vertebra fractures are usually due to conditions such as: osteoporosis (a condition which weakens the bones), a very hard fall, excessive pressure, or some kind of physical injury. When a bone in the spine collapses, it is called a vertebral compression fracture.

Overview of Osteoporotic Compression Fractures Osteoporosis and osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are commonly encountered clinical problems. The definition of osteoporosis is diminished bone density measuring 2.5 standard deviations below the average bone density of healthy, 25-year-old, same-sex members of the population.

Possible Complications After Hip Surgery Breakage of the stem is rare and usually occurs in the region of the highest tensile stress. A small crack occurs within the metal stem which may propagate and ultimately the stem breaks (a fatigue fracture). This problem was more common in older implants with fractures occurring in the neck region of the metal stem.

Fractured Vertebrae Injury Fractured Vertebrae Injury. Fractured vertebrae occur when one or more of the actual spinal bones break or crack. The vertebral components can fracture just like any other bone in the body.ractured Vertebrae Advice. Most vertebral fractures are not overly serious. It sounds very bad to have a broken bone in your spine, but usually the break will heal all by itself. Of course, in cases of serious trauma, multiple levels of vertebral fracture can cause very serious health effects.

Chance fracture [edit on Wikidata] A Chance fracture is a flexion injury of the spine, first described by G. Q. Chance in 1948. It consists of a compression injury to the anterior portion of the vertebral body and a transverse fracture through the posterior elements of the vertebra and the posterior portion of the vertebral body. It is caused by violent forward flexion, causing distraction injury to the posterior elements.

- A stress fracture is a crack in your bone. It could be no more than the width of a hair follicle, yet cause significant discomfort, especially when it is in a bone of weight bearing use, such as the foot.ecognize the symptoms of a stress fracture in your foot. They normally start out as a slight discomfort towards the front of the foot. Most stress fractures of the foot start up here where most of the force and pressure is exerted.

What Is Osteoporosis? Vertebral (spinal) compression fractures are broken bones in the back that are due to weak bones caused by osteoporosis. The vertebrae (spinal bone) collapses as a result of even minor injuries related to falling, bending, twisting, or sneezing. Osteoporosis is a disorder of the bones in which the bones become brittle, weak, and easily damaged or broken. 2  Bone mass (bone density) reaches its peak around age 25, and decreases after age 35 years and decreases more rapidly in women after menopause.

Osteoporotic compression fractures are often diagnosed when an elderly patient presents with symptoms such as progressive scoliosis or mechanical lower back pain and the physician obtains routine lumbar radiographs.

- When you have multiple spinal compression fractures, your spine will change a lot. Part of your vertebrae may collapse because the cracks mean it can’t support the weight of your spine. That can affect how your body works. Height loss. With each fracture of a spinal bone, the spine gets a little bit shorter.

Stress fracture [edit on Wikidata] Stress fracture, also known as a hairline fracture, is a fatigue-induced fracture of the bone caused by repeated stress over time. Instead of resulting from a single severe impact, stress fractures are the result of accumulated trauma from repeated submaximal loading, such as running or jumping. Because of this mechanism, stress fractures are common overuse injuries in athletes.

Spinal Compression Fractures Not everyone with a spinal compression fracture experiences the same symptoms. Sometimes patients only experience minimal or mild pain. Most commonly, however, a spinal compression fracture is associated with moderate to severe back pain and difficulty getting out of bed. Other symptoms include: 1  Hunched appearance, called kyphosis or a dowager’s hump, due to collapsed vertebrae that affect posture.  Loss of height.
