My Bowel movement and urinary flow are both poor following a L3 spinal compression fracture two months ago and do not appear to be improving. Some slight scensitivity in the buttocks region is also part of the problem and i am wondering how long this might continue?.

Concerned!

Hello dear

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com

* This is in relation with compression of nerve root fibers which are
responsible for the motor commands to the bowel and bladder for
proper functioning .

* Till it recovers with total healing and release of internal compression of
nerve roots from the possible inflammation and oedema , you have to
face the consequences of the same .

Hope this will help you for sure .
