Hello.
I have gone through your question and understand your concern. In my opinion, in this case X-RAY lower back, ultra sound abdomen and pelvis will be very helpful to diagnose if there is any internal injury. Bruise or no bruise every injury can be equally lethal and need a good examination. Lower back injury can be a muscular injury, spine injury or injury to kidney. Consult a doctor with test reports for review or update your reports here at HCM. Good luck. Hope your concern is answered. Thank You.
