Lumbar Lordosis
Posted: 11-04-07 18:55pm

Never had a back problem before in my life. Fell off 8ft ladder flat on my back to concrete floor. Broke coccyx and bruised my back from top to bottom and bruised buttocks. Can a very hard fall casuse lumbar lordosis?

It would be very unusual for a fall to cause lumbar lordosis directly but i think it could easily develope afterwoods because of the trauma to the spine

Yes. Very common. It probably knocked out your other SIJ or both (ilium upslip) and that is why you got lordosis. You should find someone to push it/them back to correct place.

There is no scientific evidence that back pain is affected by increased or decreased lordosis.

Your pain is probably from a sprain or facet jamming.

Does it hurt worse to bend forward or lean backward?

There is scientific evidence that depression pills are useless for most people and lowering your blood colesterol with pills cause cancer and other problems. Still billions of people use them.

Decreased lordosis is not a direct cause of pain. It is just one symptom caused by malaingned joints. Pain comes later, sometimes after decades when muscles get tired of supporting poor posture.
