Should I go see a doctor? Please answer.?!


Question: Should I go see a doctor? Please answer.?
My daughter threw a heavy metal wall fixture at me while I was laying on my stomach in the floor. It hit me directly on my spine very hard...and I'm a tiny person so I don't have much meat covering my bones. Anyway, I cried about 15 minutes cause it hurt like heck. It cut into it, bruised, and made it sore. That happened a month ago and if I stand up longer than 15 minutes or bend a lot it still starts aching like crazy. Should I see my doctor? Or just wait a while longer? And what could be the problem?

Oh my YES! See a doctor NOW!

That's very very bad! Anything damaging to the spine... a month! Yes yes yes, go see one, since you find it hard to stand or bend then most defiantly! You could end up paralyzed the longer you wait.
You may have slipped a disc or severed several nerves. Spine and brian are the main nerve systems so go and get it checked out. Better safe than sorry.

Good Luck! Kerry

definitely, any back injury should be checked out - they may have to reference you to a physiotherapist. And lets face it, if you have it checked out and its just bruising at least you won't have to worry about it anymore :)

Yes, definitely, go see a doctor as soon as possible. And...how old is your daughter? Does she need counseling? Should she be living somewhere else? I'm not sure she should be welcome in your home. This is not good.

Go to the doctor!!

SEE A DOCTOR!
