Suggest Treatment For Severe Stabbing Pain In The Lower Back
in the past few months, I have experienced sharp stabbing pain in my right lower back, once to the point I almost passed out. But each time it went away within minutes and I felt fine. The last few days I have a constant dull ache in that spot and it hurts more when I lay on that side. I am female, age 59 overweight but otherwise fairly healthy. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Because the pain has lasted for more than 6 weeks, it is advisable for you to have it checked with a doctor and make sure if it is just a muscular pain or not.
I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
