Pain in Legs

Asked for Female, 54 years

My mother has two compression fractures in her D10 and D11 respectively. Lately, she has been constantly complaining about the leg pain. Secondly, It has been a month since she is taking painkillers regularly and still the pain hasn't decreased a bit. My question is, is it normal and is it safe to massage her legs in this condition?

Dear Patient,

I feel there's been a mistake in your typing which part of the spine has compression fractures. However, I'm assuming its the lower spine. Pain in legs is affected. You can gently rub fastum gel on affected areas thrice/day till the oiliness is absorbed.
Pain medication alone doesn't help with the problem. You will need to take up physiotherapy. That would majorly help with pain and mobility. Hope this helps.
