Suggest Remedies For Muscle Spasms In Back Post Injury

I was stretching and lost my balance and fell backward against our porch railing. I wasn t able to catch myself at all, hit the railing and heard 3 crunching / cracking sounds along my lower right rib cage. I can breath normally, with no pain upon deep inspiration, except I begin to feel a muscle spasm type feeling when I do.
