Suggest Treatment For Severe Lower Back Pain And Stomach Pain
I slipped in bathroom, and landed on my back while my head hit the wall of the bathroom. For first few minutes I blacked out, but after half n hour, I was able to move. it has been 5 days since the fall, xray report is normal, Although i have been taking pain killers, applying deep freeze for first 48 hrs then deep heat for rest of the days, but the pain in my lower back and side stomach is acute with movement. I have consulted a doctor but the pain doesnt seem to calm down. please suggest something. I am 57 year old man, and my weight is also heavy.

I gone through your problem, After fall there may compression between vertebrae leads to immobilization and pain may be occurred. Have you taken any x-ray for vertebrae for lumbar region, this will give clue for your pain, if any compression present you may need traction. When x-ray normal there may be alignment tare or damage may be present.
