Hi there, I got hit on my lower back around my kidney about 5 days ago. It is bruised now and i have been having very sharp pain on that side whatever i do. Sitting, turning, laying down, bending down etc. I have been taking ibuprofen and pain killers also back pad. Seems like i still have same pain what should i do?
I would like to answer your question, please let me know it has satisfied you or not after reading it. You got hit five days back, and you have still problem in every activity. It suggests that you are having a severe back muscle spasm, which requires oral muscle relaxants like tablets containing Chlorzoxazone 250 mg or central muscle relaxants, along with analgesics. Only analgesics would not be sufficient.Also, you need rest as work like sitting for long or standing for long may increase the pain further. I would also like to suggest going for Ultrasound (lower abdomen) to see whether there is any impact of hit on underlying organs. Many times small bruise over organs heal by own, and may not require any treatment, but It will give you sufficient time to take action if needed. Hope it may help you! Regards.
