Suggest Treatment For Pain In Shoulder And Elbows
Hello,
I feel down the stairs yesterday and I have a sore elbow and shoulder. My lower back hurts if I stretch.
I can still move my fingers and work. At times the pain goes so I move my elbow/shoulder but then it comes back again. Should I visit a doctor to be on the safe side or is it just bruising?

hello,
From the signs and symptoms it suggest bruising on your shoulder and elbow,but for your back it would've good if you consult a doctor.
You need to rest and avoid doing movements as it will aggrevate the injury and pain.
Application of hot packs will help in pain reduction to some extend.
Also for back pain you need to avoid stretching to prevent further protective spasm
Hope this helps you
thank you
