Should I Visit For Severe Pain On Spine After A Fall?
My husband fell flat on his back at the beginning stage of diabetic shock and now has an area on his spine that is black and blue. He is in severe pain and it hurts whenever he moves. I want to take him to the doctor but thinks it will get better on its own. What do you think it might be? He also mentioned feeling pain down one leg. Thank you.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if your husband does not have any symptoms related with nervous system then no need to take him to the hospital if I would be his doctor then I would treat him with the "Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen" and this will give good response this could be superficial injuries and will come around soon have nice day.
