They have to take rest that is for any fracture other than fingers where you can have splints. Again treatment will depend upon the kind of fracture that you have. Mild sacral fractures that were caused by increased activity may be treated with rest alone. Medicine to decrease pain may be given so that you can return to your usual activities as soon as possible. After your fracture has healed, you may need an exercise program to help you be more flexible. Severe sacral fractures, often caused by trauma, may require surgery to return the bones to their normal position. Take care!
