Difficult to say anything without seeing her move & feeling around for pain/weakness - I would take her to the vet so that they can rule out any spinal damage. Hopefully it's just a muscle strain.

Went to the vets on Wednesday & told her!Ruby runs up the stairs at bedtime. She gave her an anti inflammatory injection in her back & some diazepam to bring home. Was back at vets yesterday & Ruby is walking better i am so pleased i don't have to carry her now

I'm glad she seems to be a little better. Take it easy for a little while, though, you don't want to make it worse again!
