Hi ,
It may be due to some bony or soft tissue injury at spine level .It may be due to injury / spasm of extensor of spine muscle or other soft tissue ; or due to some bony injury with or without nerve involvement which need to be diagnosed (through clinical examination n investigation including X-Ray , MRI ) and treated on urgent basis .
So visit orthopaedics clinic for further management . Till then strict immobilisation through corset belt , cold compression , analgesic (NSAID ) , MUSCLE RELAXANT ,PPI .And should be transported with LOG ROLLING TECHNIQUE . You may also required steroid course .
Hope this ll help
Thanks n regards
