For the pain, Ice (Ironically) to the pain in the back for twenty minutes on / twenty minutes off. In a day or so, switch to heat for the same rates of off and on time. Ibuprofen to reduce the inflammation. No lifting anything heavier than a plate of food for a week. If the pain gets too bad, see your doctor for some steroids.
I assume the hand needs no further treatment.
If so, you're too late for stitches, so some neosporin and some telfa type dressing and kling bandages. Vitamin C 500 mg twice a day and 220 mg of Zinc once a day until healed, have been clinically proven to increase the rate of healing in connective tissue.

ur doctor can tell u better than YA

Do you think something might be broken? If so then go to the doctor. Otherwise, it's just soreness which which slowly dissipate over the next few days. If you hit your head then DEFINITELY go to the doctor.

go see a doctor or the emergency room-you very easily could have damaged your back (soft tissue) or hip (bone injury)
that could cause more damage/pain later on.
GET TO THE DOCTOR NOW!
