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.
My son did a cannon ball off some playground equipment and landed on his back. There is no bruising or swelling the area, but he was in a lot of pain after the incident. He is complaining of some back pain, but he is having a lot of pain to the touch behind his belly button and slightly above. Is this something that needs immediate medical attention, or is it something I can just watch for a few days?
If pain remains persistent then I will advise you to further investigate I will advise you to do X ray and Ultrasound of back.
You may need medical attention if pain persists.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
