What Causes Severe Back Pain And Leg Pain After A Fall?
I fell down 15 steps on my back a month ago and had a lot of bruising around and on my tail bone. The pain has worsened and I am unable to stand for more than 5 minutes. The low back pain is bad, but the pain in my legs is unbearable. It s sharp and very distracting. Ive noticed that when I feel like I need to go to the toilet, I cant wait at all if I want to avoid an accident and sometimes I don t get any warning. It just comes out. This only happens with bowel movements.
