Transverse process fracture symptoms?
From my experience, it hurts on the side it broke on mostly. The transverse process are the wings that stick out from the vertebre.

Movement on the other hand causes sharp pains to shoot from the spot down my spine. Laying seems to cause major discomfort. I'm not a doctor, just someone who recent had a transverse process fracture. Hope this helps you out.

Is there still pain a week after a fracture?
Usually yes. The duration of the pain will depend on where the fracture is. For example, the pain from a fractured rib can last 6 weeks- 2 months since this area is always moving when you breathe and takes longer to heal. I have fractured my rib twice and my ankle and the pain for both lasted for quite a while. Just rest it as much as you can and get as much calcium and vitamin D as you can to help the healing process of the bone.

Because of how much was damage and depending on the area of the fracture and the extent of the damage, the healing process could take up to a year, and in some cases even longer.

Depending on the force that fractured your skull you can end up with memory loss, brain damage, and other nerve problems.
