What Could Difficulty In Standing Erect After Injuring The Back Indicate?

In an obstacle course attached to a lead wire walking across swinging logs. Fell and one of the logs hit my right back. Three weeks later it is getting difficult to stand up straight and it still feels bruised. Could I have done something to my kidney or liver?

Though it is certainly possible you could've suffered internal damage to organs from that sort of injury....from your description of things it sounds musculoskeletal. Nevertheless, if you are becoming so uncomfortable this far out for the initial injury then, I must advise you to see a doctor sooner rather than later. They will determine if more indepth testing using ultrasound or MRI scanning of the internal viscus were necesssary. Please rate this a 5 STAR encounter and do not forget to contact me in the future at: www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi for additional questions, comments,
