Brief Answer:
It is not normal to feel that way.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for choosing healthcaremagic for posting your query.

I'm Dr. Sudhir Kumar.

I have gone through your question in detail and understand your concern. You fell on buttocks and felt pain in back and buttocks. It is most likely soft tissue injury but you can exclude bony injury by x rays. Its treatment is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C help in recovery.

You have gone to chiropractor and now you are feeling soreness in chest and while coughing. It may be possible that you got soft tissue injury in chest wall while you had fall. It may also be possible that muscle of these were pulled by chiropractor leading to pain. Otherwise pain in chest and coughing may be unrelated to that of backache and pain in buttocks.

Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.

Wishing you a good health
Take care.
