What are the pros and cons for Kyphoplasty?
Spine Health | Last Active: Jan 15, 2025 | Replies (80)Comment receiving replies
I have been going to a PT who does ultrasound and massage, for 8 months now. I am doing fine. I do not have bad kyphosis at all. I was told that kyphoplasty could cause more fractures. It is hard to know what to believe but whatever research I was able to do, supported my decision not to have them.

I’ll just chime in to say my PT , who I feel is thoughtful and astute , told me that the research has not shown kyphoplasty to be a very effective treatment long term. I did my own research and found that was accurate from what I read.
