Slipped on steps

A slipped on the garden steps (covered in leaves!) and fell backwards as well as down. I banged my back on the step on the way down. Bruises have come up on my arms (love a good bruise). But only a very small bruise on my back, which is odd as that is the most painful. It feels very tender along the line that I hit the step.

I have been taking ibuprofen today which takes the edge off it but it is still painful. I think it is just bruises and pulled muscles but what should I be looking out for in case I have done anything more serious?

First had of half term and I am partially annoyed as it is the holidays but partially really pleased as at least I don’t have to go into work. The dogs have enjoyed the extra sofa snuggles.
