Since my fall, although I was told I hadn’t fractured, my spine is mis-shapen and I cant breathe as deeply as before. I’ve been in acute pain.
Have others experience this?

I have had four vertebral fractures in the thoracic section of my spine and also have asthma. When I first fractured the vertebrae it was impossible to take a deep breath as it hurt too much. The fractures have presumably now healed and I can now breathe more easily. I also have asthma and over the winter had to increase use of the reliever inhaler because breathing was more difficult.
Hopefully as your fractures heal, the pain will ease and you will find it easier to breathe deeply.
Thank you Gracesgran, that is reassuring and gives me hope that things will eventually improve. It’s all so slow and painful. Good luck with you journey.
Little redhead, everything is very slow if you have osteoporosis unfortunately. I hope you soon find the pain improves so you can breathe properly again.
