Hi,
Pain is quite common after a spine fracture. You can take analgesics like Tramadol or Diclofenac for symptomatic relief. The bruises will settle with time without any treatment.
If the symptoms persist you can consult a physiatrist (doctor specialized in pain medicines and rehabilitation) and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
