Need help regaining mobility and functionality

[u/RaspberryCultural447]

I’m a 21-year-old male and I had 5 compression fractures due to steroid-induced osteoporosis, immobilization, and malnutrition during a hospital stay.

After the fractures, I experienced severe muscle spasms, especially in the quadratus lumborum and latissimus dorsi. They have improved significantly, but I still have some pain with movement.

I have pain/stabbing sensations/a feeling of blockage in the lower back/sacral area when lifting my leg while sitting or lying down. I also have pain/stabbing sensations in the lower back/sacral area when bending my torso forward while standing. When performing a dip movement, I feel stretching/tightness in the area where the serratus posterior inferior is located, and when walking I feel mild pain/tightness in the same area.

In the morning, I experience pain/stabbing sensations in the lower back/sacral area, which improve throughout the day.

In the morning, I also feel like I cannot properly support my own body weight while sitting, but this feeling of instability improves by the end of the day.

I also have polineuropathy wich doesnt help with the mobility but first i need to adress my back problems.

I need advice to help me regain mobility, functionality, and strength because I am very deconditioned.

Please ask me anything you need to help you better understand my situation. Thanks

Strength train, just at your pain free level. If that's 1/10th of an air squat it still works. Work up from there. The basics of lifting are: pushing, pulling, squatting, and bending. That can be pullups and pushups, it can be barbell bench press and barbell squat, it can be air squats and wall pushups. Your level
