Can Falling Down Hard While Trampolining Injure Back Muscles Or Spine?

Today at trampoline dodge ball I went straight down on my but on a non padded area and now my lower back is in a lot of pain. My left butt cheek hurts as well but no where near as bad as my lower back. It hurts to sit lay and stand. Have I just hurt my back muscles or spine?
