A vertebral compression fracture occurs when the impact of a fall onto the buttocks is transmitted to the spine, although in severe osteoporosis a vertebra can also collapse gradually without a significant impact. Severe back pain, including pain with coughing, is a main symptom. In older adults, prolonged bed rest during recovery can lead to complications such as pneumonia or pressure sores, so caution is needed. If you have back pain after a fall, please consult an orthopedic specialist.2026-06-26
