What Relieves The Pain In Lower Abdomen And In The Area Of Kidney Caused After A Fall?
Hi, I slipped and fell on the ice hitting what I thought was my hip but seems to be in the area of kidney. My left lower stomache aches at times and is sore to the touch. Appetite is good, can eat but am somewhat worried that I tore, ruptured or. Had BM and no blood but sore in the back area.

I would recommend that you see a primary care physician to have it evaluated. The thing to be concerned about it trauma to the kidneys (contusion). It is usually evaluated by urine studies and an abdominal ultrasound. Also, your doctor can prescribe you medicines to help with the pain
