Suggest Remedies For Severe Pain In Back After A Fall
Need to rule out Lumbar canal stenosis
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
Do you have radiating pain from the lower back to the legs?
Any tingling or numbness?
If you are able to walk without support and lift weights using legs then you don't have a fracture. It's more possible that you have a ligament or other soft tissue injury.
Since one year has passed since the first trauma, you probably have a chronic condition pertaining to injured bone or soft tissue.
Slip disc would cause radiating pain in the lower limbs with tingling arms numbed when you babe forward or lift weights.
You need to have a diet with good protein content to keep up with working out.
Apply hot packs to the painful regions.
Drink Electrolyte rich fluids and plenty of water before your workout.
Keep your limbs elevated to help reduce swelling.
You can do an MRI Spine to look for Lumbar canal stenosis or narrowing of the spinal canal which can cause nerve compression.
Kindly answer my queries for me to be in a better position to help you.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Dr. Aashish Raghu
May need an MRI
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Thanks for your reply.
You could get an MRI of your spine to look for disc damage especially if you have weakness of the legs. This will also give a detailed idea of all the soft tissue involvements that you're fearing.
Please get it done and don't panic as it won't do any good to the situation
Let me know if there's anything else that I can help you with
