Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been having a lot of back pain lately, & the other day I touched my back, and it really hurt when I touched my spine. So I ran my finger down my spine and it was an excruciating pain. I had my mother look at it, because it felt like a bruise would when you touch it. There was no bruising. And I don t know what this pain could be from. I have not fallen or hit my back on any thing. What are your thoughts on this? -Brittany.
