Question: yes, my daughter 40 years old, good healthy usually, exercise 5 times weekly, healthy food, slender, 5 children so very active.....she did roll off a sled last XXXXXXX and said she hurt her back, but did not have to go to doctors.....pain got worse and after a few visits to doc, who recommended pt..which she went to....pain no better and her husband could barely hug her due to pain....finally doctor sent her for MRI and he called and said spot on her Upper spine thorasic area and she did have a bone bruise on lower spine...he sent to Ortho doctor who read and said it is not cancer, but not sure what it is....maybe vascular???what does that mean and told her to go to Physical therapy and if not better go back to doctor and they will have to do more of a work-up....I am concerned as there is no diagnosis...what do you think next step should be???? another doc? just continue with PT??? she said pain is a tiny bit better but her son ran up to hug her yesterday from the back and the pain was aweful.
