"wrong diagnosis"

About: Heartlands Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

(as a relative),

My hubby had fell and injured his lower back. Admitted to Heartlands, put in the amu and then ward 20. Scanned him and said he had soft tissue injury. He went home in agony. Was admitted again due to oxygen levels. Nothing was mentioned about his back. Before Easter, I rang 999 cause he was still in horrific pain. They actually did an x-ray on his back to find 3 fractures on his spine.
