I have a compression fracture that is "mild" (have NO idea what that means)
on T-12.  It is almost 3 weeks old.  Ok I know I am not supposed to lift
anything heavy (ok so lifting the 2x6's in the truck last Saturday was not
one of my best decisions <g>), not drive an ATV, (I don't consider a few
minutes on my tractor in that category) or do any twisting.  My discomfort
comes mostly from muscle soreness particularly on my left side.  I have had
a massage and it felt good after that, but I want to know if I should go to
the chiropractor as I would like to have my  neck adjusted but am wondering
if it is too early to have my back adjusted.  Years ago I had a serious
accident and was going to the chiropractor for adjustment as then after an
adjustment I could not longer walk as the pain from my sciatic was too
great.  Should I wait on the chiropractic for a little longer?  Also,
shortly after the accident I didn't know that I wasn't supposed to twist so
I got on my twister board and very very gently twisted for probably less
than a minute.  I didn't feel anything bad from that but I was on some
pretty strong pain killers.  I did feel the results from moving the boards
and was pretty much back in bed for two days.

So any thoughts?
