My 11 year old son fell out of a tree about 6 months ago. Since then he has had mid-back pain that has been gradually getting worse. He has had an x-ray and has no fractures or any problems that have shown on the x-ray. I first took him to the GP about 2 months ago and I have taken him 4 times since then and they just prescribe ibuprofen and paracetamol. I also took him to A&E and they sent us to the out of hours GP who again prescribed paracetamol and ibuprofen which dont help him at all, and neither does ibuprofen gel, deep heat, radian b cream or hot and cold ice packs. Ive also tried a tens machine which he couldn't use due to the pain. The pain is now so severe that it wakes him up at night and it is there constantly. He has a blood test due tomorrow (18.7.17) and a paediatrician appointment in 2 months (urgent referral!) And is on the waiting list for physiotherapy. I am getting quite concerned as he is now having severe headaches and nose bleeds along with the back pain and neck pain. I dont know what else i can do to help him.
He also has a multicystic kidney on the left side and he has mild asthma.
