Back injury wont heal

**mr. trevor** · 16.07.2009, 21:37

ok so i fell on my back really hard and smashed it on the corner of a ledge and i havent be able to sit stand walk or even lay down without crazy pain and ive been in pain for like a week now, i saw the chiropractor twice and it did no help and they said i dont need xrays...i dont know what the problem is has anyone had this ? does it just take a while to heal? im thinkin i broke somethin or ruptured my spleen or did something to pinch a nerve, idk i never really hurt my back like this

funny I got the same thing going on from an injury in August. Mines the lower left and I got an x-ray and they dident see any thing so I have no idea why it still hurts

usually I have some insight about medical issues and injurys but I have no clue about this one

probably a herniated disc. try ice a couple times a day for about 20 minutes, and take aleve a few times a day for a few weeks. when it starts to feel a little better, do some of these stretches, lightly at first until it feels a lot better.

and when it does get better, dont go right into skating hard. do some ab/core exercises to strengthen your lower back.

If it's an issues with the disks and not the vertebrae you'll likely need an MRI, a X-ray won't show you much.

**mr. trevor** · 16.07.2009, 22:09

word aight i guess ill be gettin mri's and xrays and shit all day tommoro sweet! thanks for the help bemag

**skatecharlotte** · 16.07.2009, 22:13

hey i am injured in my lower back also working at the fucking OLIVE GARDEN...
Xrays will not show you shit... it will show you that your back is not in a straight line...

YOU NEED A MRI to see the real damage... I took a MRI and found out I got 2 herniated discs...
BIG NO NO for me
SIT SUCKS WORSE THAN GETTING TRICKED TO EATING CUPCAKES THAT HAD HARVESTED DINGLE BERRIES OVER THEM

BUT YEA back injuries are no joke man
