A bone break, especially in a short bone, that disrupts osseous tissue and collapses the affected bone.<\/p>\n
A break in a vertebra, or bone of the spine, caused by a collapse of the bone tissue in one or more vertebrae. The symptoms of a compression fracture depend on the area of the back affected. If the fracture occurs in the lower back, walking may make the pain worse. Most compression fractures do not affect the nerves. However, if the fracture puts pressure on the nerves or spinal cord, symptoms may include numbness, tingling, or weakness. The causes of compression fractures include osteoporosis, spinal injury, and malignant growths, such as tumors. The treatment depends on the underlying cause.<\/p>\n
A fracture of a vertebra by pressure along the long axis of the vertebral column. Such fractures, which may occur traumatically or as a result of osteoporosis, are marked by loss of bone height.<\/p>\n
It refers to a fracture resulting from the collapse of a vertebra in the spinal column, typically caused by either trauma or the deterioration of bone strength in osteoporosis.<\/p>\n
