What Causes Back Pain That Radiates To The Coccyx And Waist?

I’m having radiating back pain from coccyx to above waist. I had one chemo treatment a week ago. I’ve been on Levafloxicin for weeks. It’s the middle of the night. I made a chiropractor appointment today because my scoliosis has made me a bit crooked again. I’m not worried if it’s just my back, but due to other drugs, I’m worried about kidneys and such. I did have a pretty large meal at about 5:30 yesterday.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Very unusual for kidney problems such as an infection or stone cause the pain you describe. It is much more likely that you are suffering from mechanical or orthopedic types of pain and you've already mentioned that you're diagnosed with scoliosis. A simple urinary sample would help rule out the kidneys as being the problem in this case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
