Hello,
Welcome at HCM.

I have read complete details of your question.

It looks from your details that you had a history of fall & having pain at your back & head.

If this pain is still persisting & of severe nature then this can be a fracture. You should not ignore & should have a x ray of concerned part.

Till then you should do following-

-Take complete bed rest.

-Avoid lifting heavy weight.

-Take a good analgesic like advil or aleeve.

-Take a supplement of calcium & vitamin C.

Hope this all will help you.

With best wishes.
