I m a cna ans having this much I could really hurt myself again. I am trying to get another second opinion through workmans comp. do you have any advice as to what it is or if its just a muscle strain. thanks
Hi
You have sustained multiple injuries. Are you able to moves your upper and lower limbs ? Better take a X - Ray Lumbo sacral spine AP / Lateral , cervial spine AP / Lateral to rule out any bony injury. I recommend you not to take steroids. my email id is ortho.drshafir@gmail.com.
