Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, as the intensity of pain is severe, there can be various possible issues as:

- hematoma in renal region with compression of underlying nerve structures
- renal injury in terms of laceration or else
- 12th rib injury as crack or fracture
- spinal cord vertebra transvere process fracture
- paraspinal ligament sprain or strain
- others

* However, a detailed clinical examination is mandatory to rule out and rule in certain diagnostic points in this matter of vivid differential diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
