Suggest A Medicine For Souring Bruise Near To Spine
Hello, I was walking down some stairs in a school building and someone had spilled a clear liquid on them. I slipped and my feet flew up completely and i landed with my spin hitting the corner of the step. I have a bruise near my spine and I am pretty sore. I have a herniated discs in my lower back and I just wonder if this accident could have hurt a discs?
