[|Human|] I had a hard fall after slipping on ice 11 days ago. Very sore wrists still and sore back just around lower rib area. Waited all day and had a bone scan today. Technician said what did you do to your back - he thought it looked serious. Radiologist did not review the scan today. I waited in emergency until 7 at night to have to attending doctor tell me to go home, see my family doctor In a couple of days for results. The back is uncomfortable at night - it can be sore enough to take Pain med to sleep and feels like something is loose - I can tell exactly where the injured disc is. Should I insist on an X-ray to see sooner what the damage may be? If the spine has not been effected this past 10 days should I just wait to see my doctor with the bone scan results in a couple of days?
[|AI|]  Hi. I suggest you to kindly get an x-ray done to rule out rib fractures...if you rule out this then you can wait for your physician appointment... In the meantime I recommend you to kindly do. Lot of icing over painful area.if you have abdominal binder can support the injured area. Avoid lying on the injured side... Take rest as much as you can...you can also get back to us with your reports... Hope this is helpful for you...Revert in case you need any further assistance in this regard...
