I recently hurt my lower back, and while walking around with my shirt off my mom noticed a dark spot on my lower back. She thinks its a bruise but I didnt hit it on anything nor does it feel like a bruise. Its been there for a while now and Im in constant pain
Hello, As per your history there can be blunt injury leading to bruise. Another possibility of skin infection can be there. You may need clinical examination to confirm it. I will advise you do X-ray of spine, and you can consult with your doctor. Physiotherapist will help you better to learn more exercises in proper protocol. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
