What is the treatment for stiffness in my neck and headache with a history of back pain and disc problems?
Patient: On Friday I fell down some icy steps, I hit my back, the left side above my hip and landed on my left arm pretty hard. I was holding my little girls hand so I tried to not hurt her, which made me fall awkwardly. I have had severe pain since, but it's gotten worse. My neck is stiff and I have a headache that won't go away. In worried that maybe I should go see a doctor, but I'm not sure if this is normal? I have a history of back pain due to disc problems and degenerative arthritis, so I am not new to pain, however the fatigue and headache are worrying me. Doctor: HIThank for asking to HCMI can understands your problem, you must be developed soft tissue inflammation because of fall, if I would be your doctor then I would treat you with the following treatment,1) Tab. Ibuprofen 200 mg three times in day 2) Tab. Acetaminophen three times in day I hope you would feel much better with this drugs, no need to worry about this take care and have nice day.
