I am having 3 vertabrae fused together soon (L3,L4L5) to correct alignment, to have cages put in where bad discs are being taken out and to fix a broken vertabrae. Does this work? Will I be able to do most things I do now? Golf Tennis? Will this lead other issues for the surrounding vertabrae?

hi,
I am 14 years old, and had a spinal fusion( for a slipped vertabrae in the lower back). will my spine continue to grow, if i am still growing? ( i know my legs are still growing)
thanks for all answers!!=)

When should you start seeing bone growth in x-rays, and when should the two vertabrae appear as one?

Now you dont need to differentiate between these but tell me in general what a vertabrae is.
Thank you!!!

The chances are slim they may not walk again; however, they do have function of arms and hands. What are some of the top recovery centers in Southern California for this kind of injury?

6th & 7th vertabrae were crushed, and a hematoma was found within the cord. Serious responses only please as this is a time of a great family crisis.

I was diagnosed with whiplash, left tibial nerve damage, a slipped vertabrae, and a bulging disk. I did nerve testing, x-rays, and a mri. I have to see an ortho-specialist this week. I have been off work since the accident. I want to know excluding the medical bills and lost wages, what is fair compensation. Also, am I being unrealistic, do I need a lawyer?
