Why Do I Have Constipation, Decreased Urination And A Small Urge To Urinate Along With Side And Lower Back Pain?
Probably kidney dysfunction, follow the advice below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
There are several medical conditions that can be related to your symptoms.
The most common cause is kidney dysfunction.
I suggest the following examinations:
- A complete blood count
- A urinalysis
- Stool test
- Abdominal ultrasound
- Creatinine level and uremia blood level to check kidney function
Meanwhile, I suggest you to drink a lot of liquids which will help with constipation.
Other advice about the treatment are:
- Take over the counter laxative such as Miralax
- Continue the probiotics that you are already using
- Take anti inflammatory medications for the pain such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day
After the examinations you can contact me again for further evaluation and treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Probably dehydration, I suggest liquid intake.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
If you already checked out the kidney function than we can relate your symptoms just with dehydration.
Do you drink enough liquids during the day?
I suggest you to drink at least 2 liter per day or 10 cups.
I also suggest to do a stool test to check gastrointestinal tract function.
Meanwhile, I suggest you to follow the advice that I gave above to relieve the symptoms.
Take care,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
