Hello doctor,
I slipped and fell down the stairs. I have a backache after this accident. What X-ray do I need to take?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Depending on the location of your backache, you will need the x-ray of that part.
The following will help you:
- Pain in the upper back - thoracic spine x-ray.
- Pain in the mid back - dorsolumbar spine x-ray.
- Pain in the lower back - lumbosacral spine x-ray.
