Suggest Treatment For Sharp Back Pain While Sneezing
i fell down steps and landed on the right side of my back 4 days ago. It was sore, but yesterday I sneezed and now I have a shifting/popping on my back right side accompanied by real sharp pains when I move a certain way, sneeze, or cough. Did I break something? Should I got to the E.R. or Dr.? Thanks!

Hello
welcome to hcm
actually you have developed SPASM OF BACK MUSCLES which is causing pain and stiffness...kindly take following treatment for 1 week -
(1) TABLET IBUPROFEN three times a day
(2) TABLET CHLORZOXAZONE three times a day
(3) if pain is very severe you can have INJECTION THIOCOLCHICOSIDE intra-muscularly twice daily for 3 days
(4) HOT FOMENTATION twice daily in the region of pain
(5) avoid driving n staying in a particular posture for too long
if after 1 week of above treatment ,you still feel pain then get a MRI OF LUMBO-SACRAL SPINE to rule out PIVD i.e DISC PROLAPSE and consult a orthopedician with your MRI REPORTS
