I have been having pain in my lower back on the right side for years.....it seems to come and go.....when the pain starts it usually lasts for a few weeks then doesn t bother me for a while....I have been to multiple emergency rooms since I was a teen and as soon as the Dr presses on that side of my back I jump because of the pain....the first thing the Dr s have said is kidneys n started ivs but when blood tests come back good they say I have just over done it......I am female 24 yrs old and have had two children and have high blood pressure anxiety
Dear- thanks for using HCM, I will be glad to give you my medical advise.Back pain is a very frequent problem for which we need to do a basic evaluation. You did not mention that you had had MRI of the back which gives a lot of information in terms of the vertebra,spinal stenosis and bulging disc. You might have a herniated disc pressing the nerve and giving you this pain. Kidney pain is more in the costal area or the side of the back and will improve after antibiotics. However, you need a kidney ultrasound to evaluate for kidney stone or cysts.Those can get infected and be painful. I hope that my advise has helped you. Dr.Sara
