What Can Cause Sudden Bruise And Pain On Lower Back?
Hi, I am a 25 year old male and suddenly felt some pain on my lower left hand side back. I had a look in the mirror and there is a slight bruise there but I cannot recall knocking it at all. Any ideas for this sudden bruise and pain?? It hurts to sit and walk aswell and i would rate the discomfort/pain as 7/10.

Hi
Bruising is common with even mild injury.But severe pain,swelling or bleeding from bruises should be treated immediately.Any small fractures or severe soft tissue swelling should be ruled out.Pain killers and hot compress can provide early pain relief.
Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
