Professional Soldiers ® - View Single Post - Pointers to good Internet resources for cracked Vertebrae?

Favourite cousin cracked his 5th and 6th thoracic vertebrae this weekend when he dove into his swimming pool. No surgery dx'ed at this time; he will wear a mobility "halo" for 6-8 weeks. 39 y/o, in trim condition.

I have done a bit of research on line since Sunday, but would appreciate any recommended Internet sites which might provide further insight in regards to treatment, follow-up physio, pain management and outcome expectations.

Many thanks,
Pandora
