Titanium BAK Cage

Hi There,
  I've had 3 lower back surgeries. The last one I had a Titanium BAK Cage put into my L-4,L-5 spine.
  I had a nasty fall and landed right on my lower back. I was thrown from a tall horse. Now I have a very new pain.
  My question is can a Titanium BAK Cage break?

Hi,sorry to know it
Possibly can't ,as strong back muscle and ligments supporting.
I would suggest with this  back pain that you probably need an MRI scan to see if  pain constant.
Best wish to you!
