I decided to take my 4 year old son to go roller skating. I have not been roller skating in at least 15 years. As soon as we got on the floor, we fell. I literally landed in the splits on the first fall. I already have a bad back. But now my back and right leg is excruciating painful. My left leg is having a lot of numbness and tingling and some in my right. Can landing in the splits cause damage that I should seek medical care for, or is this something that will possibly wear off? TIA.
If you are in that much pain to ask strangers, then your answer is yes… Go to the doctors ASAP.

Go to an urgent care or ER for an X-Ray. Depending on those results you may need a CT or MRI.

From the sounds of it you damaged your sciatic nerve. I pinch mine from time to time. Shit is AWFUL. GO get checked out
It could be anything from a strained pinched sciatic nerve to a compression fracture of a vertebrae. There is absolutely no way to know for sure without x-rays and scans.
