<human>: i got knocked down by a couple dogs yesterday. They ran into the back of my legs and i went up and down - flat on my back. (I already have a herniated disc - L5S1) Today, lower abdomen feels like I ve been doing sit ups and the front of my neck feels the same way. Is that from the fall?
<bot>: Hi. Your symptoms are due to muscle spasms due to sudden fall where they are not prepared for fight or flight. Get an anti-inflammatory medicines like Ibuprofen, muscle relaxants, local rubrafacient (which increase warmth), take a rest, and you will be fine. Consult a Doctor if you have other associated symptoms related to the Disc problem like pain or weakness in the lower limbs, abdominal distension, pain or vomiting.
