Pain In Lower Back, Cheek. What Can Be Done?

pain in lower back, down the left hand side above left butt cheek. fell on it 9 months ago, by doing a backflip on a sandybeach but landing on a rock covered up underneath the sand. now the pain shows itself every now and again, when pressure is applied to it. sometimes when i stand up after sitting, or am running, lifting etc the pain is little to moderate but is present.

Dear friend, welcome to Healthcaremagic!
I am Dr. Prasad Akole (Critical Care Expert- http://bit.ly/Dr-Prasad-Akole) and am glad to address to your query here.

You seem to have sustained a blunt bony injury which is now troubling you.

I would advise you to get evaluated by a physician or an orthopaedician, get Xrays of the pelvis with hips and lower spine to look for any derangement.
Blunt injury, fracture, dislocations are possible. Rarely there could be a haemotaoma (bleed).

Till then, you can take simple OTC pain-killers or pain-sprays locally.



I hope to have answered your query satisfactorily. I would be glad to answer any further queries. Take care and please keep me informed of your progress at http://bit.ly/Dr-Prasad-Akole
Good Luck!
