Decided To Take A Quick Shower Last Night...........midnight.......after I Had

[lilacben]

cleaned the lounge carpet. While in the shower I slipped and fell banging my upper back on the wall. At the time it took my breath away and made me feel a bit sick. The pain is better today but it is still aching.! Dont think I have done anything but should I get it checked.?

From what you have said, I would say that it muscular and will settle.
I wouldn't get it checked........but your call.

If you dont think you have done anything, the pain is better today, and you only fell in the early hours of today I personally would not get anything checked out. I would give it a few days as you have obviously hurt it and no doubt bruised it and it needs a bit of time to recover. But if it didnt fell better in a few days, or if at any time it actually felt worse, then yes I would.

I'd give it a few days to ease off and see the doctor if it doesn't improve.

Relieved that Sqad and I seem to be on similar lines in response....

Get youself a rubber showermat, to avoid it happening again.

Many thanks to you all for your replies. I have left it and just had a couple of paracetamols. It hurts when I breath in so I suspected muscle but just liked to get a second opinion.
