Can Back Pain, Marks And Movement Problems Due To Injury Be Treated?

I fell down the last 2 steps of stairs, slipped, & went in the air & my back landed on the stair, knocking the wind out of me. I'm in a lot of pain now. I did not hear any cracks but it hurts to move. there are traces of marks where I hit the part of my back, but I feel like it's internal. I can barely get up & move. What should I do?

Hi,
Drom history it seems that there might be having some injury to spines or fracture of one or more rib giving this sever pain.
Go for x-ray spines and ribs to rule out fracture or injury to spines.
Consult othopedic surgeon and get examined.
Meanwhile take some NSAID medicine like ibuprofen or Dicyclomine as needed.
Ok and take care.
