What Causes A Lump On Left Side Of Lower Back?
About a week and a half ago I fell straight onto my basement steps pretty hard on my back. I didn t have any noticeable bruising but I was extremely sore and tender for several days. I hit on my lower back the hardest and am still feeling pain there. My lower spine is still tender to the touch even now. Also, I just noticed today that I have a lump on the left side of my spine on my lower back where I hit the hardest. What could this be?
