Why The Fingers Are Numb After Fell Hard On The Back?

My friend was shovelling off his deck and fell really hard on his back on the step and you can feel a lump in his back now. His right fingers were all numb and even a couple hours later he still can't feel his fingers. What would he have hit? A nerve? Will it come back eventually?
