Hello,
I have studied your case.
There is possibility of osteoporosis and associated infection.
I will advise you to do MRI thoracic spine, HRCT [CHEST]] and
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can use supportive brace.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
