Dear Friend,
First i would like to know what kind of back injury you suffered? Was it a bony injury, if so calcium supplements will help along with vitamin D3 sachets.
If it was ligament or disc disease protein supplements will help.
For healthy joints and spine exercise and well balanced diet is good enough.
