A member asked:
I had a really bad pull/tearing feeling around waist area. could i have pulled/tore a muscle/ligament? what images can tell if a tear occurred?

Possibly: Muscle tear won't show up on xray but on mri, occasionally. Only your dr can give you a thorough exam & assessment. Hope you feel better!
