Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Sudden Pain In The Chest And Lower Back After A Mild Impact?
This is a dumb question, but I went rafting yesterday and this kid accidently landed on top of me. All day I have had chest pains and lower back pains. I feel like it could be from the impact, but he was a tiny kid and it didn t hurt at the time so don t know why I would be in pain today
The pain can be due to impact. On the impact of the kid on you, the muscles n skin might have pressed hard on the bone (concussion). It will be relieved within a few days. If you want you can take a skeletal muscle relaxant or pain killer for 2 days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Rohit S Menon, Dentist
