Seven fractures over four years is an incredibly difficult journey, and the burning and pain being described sounds exhausting and distressing. It's really important to speak with a doctor about these specific symptoms as soon as possible, as they need to be properly evaluated.
The pain and burning sensations in the waist, groin, hips, buttocks, shins, and feet could be related to nerve involvement from spinal fractures, which can cause radiating pain and burning sensations in various parts of the body. While waiting to see a doctor, some things that MyOsteoTeam members have found helpful for managing pain include:
- Mindfulness meditation to help manage pain and worry
- Modified sleep positions, such as using a V-shaped pillow between the knees to relieve spinal pressure
- Prescribed sleep aids or pain medications from a doctor, such as medications specifically for nerve-related pain
- Gentle exercise where possible, as recommended by a healthcare provider Please don't delay in contacting a healthcare provider about these symptoms. The burning sensations described are not something to manage alone — a doctor may refer to a physical therapist or pain specialist who can help create a tailored plan.
