Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient
you may be having blunt trauma to your back with muscle spasm. I would like to advise xray of the dorsolumbar spine anteroposterior and lateral views to rule out bony abnormalities. Please get it done from radiology centre nearby you. Meanwhile start tab myoril 4 mg twice a day with tab ultracet twice a day for pain relief. Ice fomentation locally helps in reducing inflammation. if not relieved in 5 days please consult orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area with report.
