fractured L3 vertebrae with 50% compression
what exactly does this mean. L3 vertebrae, 50% compression? I broke my L3 vertebrae at age 18, and a year later got into an auto accident that my body was “folded” together for a brief time. after the auto accident my back pain/problems seemed much worse. I have tried working many different types of jobs (even sitting) and after a day or so I have to go to the E.R. because I can barely walk and hurt so bad. I never wanted to accept the fact that I could’nt work, but after years of trying I finally gave up (30 + jobs) and filed for disability. if I stay off my feet and really take it easy, a month or more may go by before I have to go to the hospital. but if I do much of anything, I almost immediatly have to go. sometimes just standing up will cause pain for weeks. I haven’t been able to work long enough to ever gain any insurance, or enough $ to see a regular doctor hence the E.R. visits. but my last visit, the doctor showed me the x-ray, and said it was my L3 vertebrae (which I knew), but that it had 50% compression. what exactly does this mean? he said my injury should have healed long ago, but it was still very obvious in the x-ray. Thank you for any info
