I dove into a river off a dock 4 days ago & i knocked the wind out of myself. It didnt hurt the past 3 days but now it does. Have I pulled a muscle? It hurts my upper/middle back when I take a deep breath. Although, I do get back pain sometimes due to my poor posture.. Im not quite sure what has happened.
Hi, The scenario you just described is suggestive of some serious back trauma to be checked and carefully investigated. Painkillers, keeping the back at rest and on a hard surface and doing X-rays of the spine would be most useful at this point. Thanks and kind regards
