What Are The Symptoms To Look For After Having Injury To Left Buttock?
Question: I fell on my left butt cheek. I have a litte tenderness in the area no swelling or bruising. I am able to walk fine no pain this happened this morning. I feel okay I just want to know what to watch for.
Brief Answer:
Watch for low back pain or pain during straining.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
That kind of fall could cause two possible damages: lumbar column damage and coccygeal damage.
If you start feeling low back pain, it is possible a lumbar column damage ( muscles, intervertebral discs and bones).
If you feel any pain in toilet eg. ( straining), possible coccyx damage.
If you didn't feel any pain so far, I don't think you should be worried.
