Hi all.

I have recently been diagnosed with a congenital C5/6 fusion as well as a T4/5 fusion. I happened to slip over on the ice back in December.

At hospital, i was told that i had a closed fracture of my T4/5 fusion.

i have a few questions relating to this:
- What is a closed fracture?
- Is it going to affect my everyday life?
- Should it be operated on (because i am assuming that my fusions are unstable)?

I have also been told that i may have another congenital fusion in the lumbar part of my spine, is this common??
