Pain In The Lower Back And Buttocks After An Accident. Concerned
I was rear ended. I was in the on ramp of a highway and the car behind me thought that i had gone and hit me. It was a strong.nudge and i felt no.pain at the time. The next day, my lower back on the left side close.to my.buttocks was sore. Now 2 months almost after the hit, i can barely sleep. It got worse as it starts and feels like its going to pull out my skin if i.lay.or move a certain way. What can it be is.hn it from the accident?

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
From description it seems you might having ligamentous strain over lower back. As two months are already passed and pain persisted, get it evaluated by an orthopaedician or proper diagnosis and management. You may need xray/MRI of affected area under his guidence.
Hope this will helps you.
