Suggest Medication For Sore Back After A Fall

I have been doing crossfit for 9 mths and I was doing pull ups and lost my grip and landed flat on my back. I didn t feel anything at that instant. I stretched out and modified my work out- that was Monday, I haven t done anything but try and ice and take ibuprofen. I stretch often but the mid low right side of my back is very sore? Should I go see a sports specialist?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to musculo-skeletal injury secondary to the fall.
Symptomatic relief is obtained by analgesic preparations like Diclofenac+ Serratiopeptidase (to be taken after meals), ice compression, application of analgesic+ muscle relaxant gel & adequate rest.

If symptoms still persist, kindly consult a Sports specialist/ Orthopedician for proper clinical examination.
X ray of the Lumbosacral spine will be helpful to rule out any fracture or other pathological causes.

Wishing you a Good Health.
Take care.
