I was dropping 904D SSB batteries when I was pushing the 4th battery onto the pallet I felt a slight pull in my groin area. Upon walking Around the pallet to lint the 4th and 1st battery up I pushed forward on the battery and that is when I really felt an intense pain through out my right groin area up into the lower back on right side

Dropping bus batteries while pushing onto pallet and lining up a battery I pulled what I believe to be my groin or my back the pain radiates back and forth.
