Anyone who falls can experience any type of injury. You really should see a doctor and not let fear stop you. The doctor can prescribe you something help with your pain. Please go see a doctor and take control of the "not knowing" so you can relax. Your stress will just make things MUCH worse. You need a peace of mind.

My father fell off a 5ft ladder and was lucky to survive he suffered major bruising and cracked rib. Also a month or so later he developed a hernia from it all in his groin area. So even though it is still serious there is much worse off. Most likely this can be treated and you can experience relief once you know what is causing the pain. Only one that can tell you is a doctor and some Xrays. :)

All the Best ~Nichole
