Vertebral Fracture<\/h2>\n

Osteoporosis is a highly common condition in which bones become weak and brittle. One complication that can result from osteoporosis is a vertebral compression fracture, a type of injury where one or more vertebrae collapse due to bone compression. Although vertebral compression fractures can occur due to trauma to the spine, more than 700,000 cases<\/a> are the result of osteoporosis.<\/p>\n

If you are experiencing severe back pain or you notice a loss of height or slight deformity to your spine, contact Desert Institute for Spine Care. When you visit one of our Phoenix-area clinics, you can count on precise diagnosis and quality treatment for your spinal symptoms.<\/p>\n
