Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Dear patient
There are two possibilities 1. Disc prolapse at lumbar spine 2. Renal stone. Since you have previous kidney problems possibility of renal stone is likely but according to your symptoms disc prolapse is more likely. I would advise radiograph of lumbosacral spine anteroposterior and lateral views and mri of lumbosacral spine . Both would help in confirming and excluding diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly. Meanwhile start tab diclofenac plus thiocolchicoside combination twice a day and tab vitamin B12 plus pregabalin 75mg at bedtime for pain relief.
