Spinal fractures are breaks in the vertebrae caused by trauma, osteoporosis, or other medical conditions, and they can range from mild to severe. Spinal fractures can be classified into several types based on their characteristics:

• Compression Fractures: Small breaks in the vertebrae, often due to osteoporosis or trauma.
• Burst Fractures: Occur when a vertebra is compressed with significant force, causing it to break into multiple pieces.
• Chance Fractures: Result from a sudden pulling apart of the vertebrae
