Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for your information.
Yes, according to your current height and weight, you are having over weight (Your BMI is 26). You have to reduce 6 kgs. I suggest you start exercises.
For back pain: Yes kidney stone can cause back pain as well.
Drink plenty of water.
I suggest you Ibuprefen 400 mg for pain. Use it sparingly.
If your will not reduce after 5 days then I suggest you get ultraound scan to rule out kidney and ureteric stones.
Do not sleep in same position for long time.
