I don't know how long pain lasts from Evenity. It is so new and docs don't seem to know either. Maybe there are studies online-?

I don't think spinal fractures "heal" though docs use that term. They stabilize but the structural changes remain. I have a lot of back pain and tightness, much of it from muscle spasms caused by the fracture and shortening of the spine.

A few days ago I lifted three bowls at once onto a shelf above my head and that kind of mistake- stupid me- can cause a couple of weeks of worse pain. If I stay in bed with pillows for a few days, it helps after I do something unwise.
ps I also have some arthritis 🙂
