Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I want to discuss my father's backbone injury. He is feeling a lot of pain in his back and leg joints where the leg joins the backbone. He did not pee well and his urine is dark red. Now he is unable to move his legs or stand on his legs.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

He has a healed fracture in the L1 vertebra but since he has not passed urine properly, so I suggest you should take him to a specialist doctor. I suggest you get an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) of the dorse lumbar spine with the screening of the whole spine plain. I also advise bed rest for him.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.
