I have several
Compression fractures in my lower thorasic and lumbar vertebrae. Since the most recent ones, I have a pooch in my belly and a concave indention below my ribs. As the fractures are healing, I am finding lite extension exercises helpful. With the compression, it seems my back has collapsed some, and it is affecting my digestive organs. Gentle swimming, very gentle stretches, inversion board set at a minimal angle are some of the things I am using to create space and lengthening in my spine. Very gentle core strengthening is good too, but only when the bone fractures were not acute. My PT pushed too hard. I had to find my own comfort zone.
