Does Lower Back Pain And Frequent Urge To Urinate Require Medical Attention?
I have lower back pain and lower abdominal tenderness with frequent urination and fatigue. I have a diagnosis of IBS with constipation with a recent normal colonoscopy. Probiotics has been helpful with maintaining a regular BM but not without the feeling of not fully emptying sometimes. Am 50 years old. Should I see my OBGYN

Hello,
The frequent urination and lower back pain can be related to a urinary tract infection. I suggest to do a urine test and a urinalysis to confirm the diagnosis. Meanwhile, I suggest to use a spasmolytic such as Buscopan 10 mg three times a day. I also suggest to use liquids and especially cranberry juice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
