Apparently I am not alone! I thought I broke something. Baths with epsom salts have helped after a super hard fall I just had that had me taking 800 mg ibuprofen. I stopped after a couple days because I don’t want to damage my liver. I don’t see that the author is answering here but go to the doctor because you shouldn’t be in pain after a week. That’s what I’m doing tomorrow because my body is telling me so.

I fell it will be week Wednesday. I fell on my buttocks it didn’t start hurting until the next afternoon. I couldn’t move around, so I went to the hospital. I’ve broken over 18 vertebrae’s caused by not getting enough calcium growing up. They said at the hospital nothing is broken. I didn’t bruise at all. But my doctors that gave Kyroplasty they insisted on a MRI because they wouldn’t show up on a regular e-ray. The pain today has gotten. If you have any suggestions it would be truly appreciated. Thank-you

I fell down my basement steps 2 days ago. I’ve been in severe pain when sitting, walking, bending or squatting. Walking up or down steps hurts also. I’m ok laying down but it’s very hard to turn or switch positions. How long does it take for this to heal or at least for pain to lighten up?

I fell almost 2 weeks ago .Am 71 yrs old .I fell on my butt. I have pain in my stomach and lower back. No bruises,bleeding,swelling except my left foot it’s swelled but not to bad. I can’t lay down because I can’t it up. So I sit up on my couch and sleep. Nothing hurts when I lay down ,but I can’t sit or stand because of the pain .My stomach feels like I ramed my ribs right into it. Pain if the back muscle would heal .I could adjust to my stomach least I could lay down.

My but just hurts all of a sudden. I never fell

But the doctor’s say that my spine and my back are in very bad shape.

I missed a stoop and fell so hard it knocked the wind out of me, I actually think I passed out. I landed on my left buttocks. Terrible pain , went to urgent care X-rays were taken no breaks were found . Gave me crutches week ago I fell and I am still in terrible pain and struggling with walking ! Anything else I can do

Hello,
I have been in serious pain in regards to my back… it doesn’t hurt, but I also fell and landed on my buttocks… I have a very sharp pain right above my tailbone…. It’s the most horrible pain as it feels like If I am picking up a heavy bowling ball when I get up to walk or if I’m driving and I step out of my car sideways, it hurts severely…. Can someone tell me if your experiencing such pain like this…. Maybe you can tell me where or what I need to do…. Any advice is greatly appreciated …

I fell and hit my tailbone very hard. I put an icepack on it for some relief and bending is hard for me to do. Walking also, I am taking baby steps. Does anyone know how long it will last??
