Posted on Mon, 1 Apr 2019
Question: I sustained a closed vertical fracture in my sacrum and a closed XXXXXXX in my left pelvis (confirmed by CT scan) in September 2018 due to a bucking horse. For weeks, my abdomen and lower back were both extremely swollen, due to inflammation. After 6 months, the swelling has gone except my abdomen will often bloat. I have neither constipation or diarrhea. Will this eventually go away? Thanks! XXXXXXX
