Suggest Treatment For Broken Ribs With Groin Injury After Falling

I am 60yr. old male fell on ice last Dec. went to emergency rm. thought i broke ribs even though i landed or flipped flat on my lower back.My ribs were ok. However my low back started hurting that night and I was unable to do much but lay and rest for a month. I have made it through summer with mild pain but since cold weather has returned my back is killing me again as well as groin left side I failed to mention the groin injury connected with this incident.

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Cold weather tends to keep us indoors.
Too much sitting can cause muscle cramps.
So I suggest to get your body moving with some light stretching and exercise.
You can also use anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
Warm shower can be helpful.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
