Hurt my back-what to do?

Question

So in Indiana, we are getting pounded with rain. We hooked up an extra sump pump to keep the water levels down around our house. Needless to say, I slipped on our deck and landed on my ass/back. I am in a decent amount of pain, but I don’t think I broke anything, just sore from falling. I’m 9 weeks pregnant and I’m not big on taking meds unless I have to. Anything I can do to help relieve some of the pain?

Answer

Man that is not fun:( I’m in Indiana too it’s been pouring down. I would either use a heat pad or some ice on your back just to help the pain. I’m 17w on Monday and at least in my case without hurting myself already have bad back pain and I’m only 22 y/o. I would for sure take acetaminophen or something if it gets bad enough (no ibuprofen though Incase you didn’t know) I really don’t like taking meds unless necessary but some of the pain may get bad enough, don’t feel too bad about taking it if you need to not feel terrible, I hope you feel better soon!❤️

Answer

Warm bath. When I broke my tailbone I had to fold a towel and lay it on the bottom of the tub because it was so bad. Feel better!
