Muscle strains usually happen when a muscle is stretched beyond its limit, tearing the muscle fibers.

Thoracic & Lumbar Spine Fracture

The most common spinal fractures occur in the thoracic (midback) and lumbar (lower back) spine, or where the two connect (thoracolumbar junction). There are several types of thoracic and lumbar spine fractures, and classification is based upon pattern of injury and whether or not the spinal cord has also been injured. Identifying the type of fracture can help your physician determine the most appropriate treatment.
