Hello All!
My 7 year old daughter was recently diagnosed with a stress fracture (Spondylolysis) in her lower back. She is being fitted for a brace tomorrow and will spend 3 months sports free (gymnastics and soccer) Dr says she'll heal up just fine and be back to gymnastics and soccer by spring.
I am just wondering any experience with this type of injury? He says it's quite common in gymnasts. And my DD isn't even a competitive gymnast she takes class once a week but likes to practice at home (no big stuff - back walkovers, front walkovers, handstands) She been doing gymnastics since she was one and a half
I am concerned when she is ready to go back she could injure herself again.
Thanks!
