Had a bad fall at work on Wednesday. Stepping off a lighthouse into the tender, it was pretty rough and as I grabbed the handrail, the boat suddenly dropped. I fell forward, twisted and landed on my back. The boat was on its way back up when I landed so I hit the deck pretty hard after falling about a metre.
Tbh, it could’ve been a hell of a lot worse - got pretty freaked out when I thought what could’ve happened if I missed the boat.
Anyway, apart from generally feeling bashed up, my shoulders and neck have been feeling really stiff and painful, especially at the base of my neck - it feels like someone’s jamming a rod into my spine. This has come on since Friday night and I’m wondering if it could be a bit of whiplash?
Gonna try and book an appointment with a nurse on Monday if it hasn’t improved.
Otherwise, I’m self medicating with ibuprofen and rum but was wondering if there are any exercises or stretches I can do to help?
