How To Treat The Child Who Is Having Hard Time Breathing After Repeated Fall On His Back?
9 year old that complained about back hurting when playing with her friends about a week ago. She recovered, and then slipped on ice and fell on butt before going to gymnastics. Recovered from that (Monday) and then today she slipped on carpeted stairs on her back and she was having a hard time breathing. she said it is still hurting and she fell 8 hours ago, but all these falls were in the last week or so and now i am wondering the best way to help her. We gave her tylenol, but i dont know if i should ice or heat it and if i should start with the chiropractor or the primary care doctor.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The history of fall (Repeatedly) is there so treating it on symptomatic basis is not advisable bit it is better to have x-ray study this will clear the certain doubts and then it will be easy to treat her I hope you can understand this take care of her and have nice day.
