Fall on buttock in bathroom

by megcheermom, Jun 27, 2008 09:19AM
I fell on my buttock and lower back in the bathroom.  I am in my late forties and overweight.  It happened a week and a half ago.  The back pain has gone away, but I am still experiencing pain in my buttock especially on standing.  I was diagnosed with deep muscle contusion, but I need to know how long does the pain usually last after a fall such as this?

it will take more than 8 weeks if nothing was serious.
