What Is The Cause Of Body Pain?

I fell down the stairs earlier today, went to er and they said nothi g was broken, but iam having a real hard rime sitting or even moving. The nurse practicioner said i didnt break anything but when she was putting pressure on my ribs it hurt tremendously in the top. I have been using ice pak then heating pad then ice pack, what else can i do. Also i took two t3 which isnt helping at all with the pain.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi you have injuries on your ribs and are feeling difficulty in sitting or even moving. In my opinion , with this kind of picture you might have fractured a vertebra in dorsal spine. I would suggest pain killers , and an X Ray of Dorsal Spine before any thing else.
