What does sharp pain & burns in back muscles suggest?
Patient: I fell and hit my back left side on the arm of a chair. I have constant aching/burning pain like a pulled muscle and sharp pain when I move/stand/try to sit up…and sneezing/coughing causes pretty severe pain. I also feel like something is popping in and out of place about 4-5 inches from my spine. I thought maybe I dislocated something or is it more likely a fracture? Doctor: hiit may be muscle contusion or sprain, take advil tabs after meals daily, apply anti-inflammatory gels locally after hot fomentation.it should settle, if doesnt then consult orthopedic doctor and if needed x ray may be advisedbest wishes
