What Is The Reason For Lump On Spine, Soreness After Fall?

Hi there, I fell yesterday on my stairs onto my back and arm. My back now has a lump on the spine - it's not that sore just feels bruised but I'm a bit concerned about the lump. Do you think I should see a doctor and is there anything I should be doing like icing it?

Hi, it could be due to trauma, so if u r not having any pain or weakness, then u can try applying icepack and giving it some rest for a while, if it still doesnt go away, then u can go see an orthopaedic ian.
