Can Kidney Stones Cause Back And Hip Pains?

I was washing my hands two days ago and had a severe pain in the left side of my upper back that took my breath. over the last two days it hurts all the way around my side right above my hip in about three different spots. I can walk around and do really well, but when I sit down or drive it hurts really bad. I have had kidney stones like about 10 times and this feels nothing like any of those.

HI
Well come to HCM
The pain that you described here may not be due to kidney stone but this could be due to spinal cord disk herniation such sudden pain commonly possible in slip disk and this need to be ruled out, some time both the condition of stone and spinal disease cab be treated simultaneously till the final diagnosis made, you need to differentiate this two conditions till then this can be managed with the following drugs
1) Tab Dicyclomine with Acetaminophen three times in day
2) Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day (sustain release)
Have complete bed rest, hope this information helps, take care.
