HI,
thanks for the query.
I understand your concern.
You had fracture of T12 vertebra.. your symptoms also suggest some trauma/ jerk/ stress/ compression at lumber spine level.
. The symptoms you have do suggest lumber spinal involvement.
You should get a check up by a spinal surgeon/ get X ray, CT scan, MRI ( as per need ) followed by treatment with medicines/ physiotherapy/ surgery if needful.
Thanks.
