What Causes Pain In Waist Area?
I fell pretty hard and landed on a branch that was mostly buried on the waist area of my left side. It doesn't hurt to breathe, but certain movements and putting pressure on the area (slightly more towards my back) sends me quite a bit of pain. Did I break my bottom rib or is this just some sort of brusie or strain?
