Spine needs to be protected before one tries to stand. This is possible both internally and externally. Bone osteoporosis management needs to be accurate if at all conservative measures are being tried for recovery and managing his case.
Next Steps
Pain increasing can be either due to nerve compression or ongoing osteoporosis and collapse.
Health Tips
Consult online with all reports and case history. He will definitely be in a better shape.
