How To Get Rid Of The Back Pain Caused Due To A Fall?
I fell down the stairs 26 days ago and I landed on the edge of the stairs in the middle of my back. After my back hit, my head slammed into the stairs and I slid down the rest of them. At first I felt numb and tingly all over and couldn t walk. My back still hurts to this day.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The persistent pain in the back like you are having could be due to a muscle related pain or a bone injury in the area. It is best to get an MRI scan done to find out the degree of damage.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
