Pars Fracture

4arms1,000+ posts

I saw a thread on this but it is old. My son was recently diagnosed with a unilateral (one side) stress fracture near his L4. Doctor braced him and said he’d be starting PT in six weeks and it would likely be 12-16 weeks before progressing back to ball. Has anyone recently dealt with this and did they have success with it healing and going away with conservative management?

A friends son had one last year that showed up around February. Missed the HS season but was back for summer. No issues at all now

Not recent, but at age 13 son had that and was treated with brace and PT. Was diagnosed at end of summer and was back to playing the following spring.Fast forward - currently a pitcher in D1 school. Make sure he keeps the brace on and does the PT.
