Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of musculoskeletal pain due to motorcycle accident is more.
But better to rule internal lung injury because you had fall also.
So get done chest x ray first.
If chest x ray is normal then no need to worry for much.
Your all symptoms are mostly due to musculoskeletal pain.
So apply warm water pad on affected areas. Take painkiller like ibuprofen. Avoid movements causing pain.
Avoid bad postures in sleep. Avoid heavyweight lifting and strenuous exercise.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these in 5 - 7 days.. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
