A member asked:
What to do if i fell yesterday, bad back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How bad was the fall: if you don't feel any numbness or tingling in your arms or legs, or especially any weakness, there is less concerned. You can try ice, within 24 hours of injury, then a heat pack may help. Additionally, could add over-the-counter pain medication if you develop any of the symptoms mentioned above, or a loss of bowel or bladder control, or inability to walk, go to the emergency room immediately
