Recent Lower Back Injury

I recently ruptured a disc in my back and my posture is beginning to become affected. My body is compensating for the injury by tilting to the left.

How can I prevent my spine from healing crooked?

I have been leaning the other way regardless of pain so that I don't end up walking funny.

More information:
I was in the hospital for about 6 hours; I got an x-ray and it turned out that my physical spinal cord is fine.

I am currently on T3 and Neproxin to cope with the pain - it is still quite painful.
