What Causes Burning Sensation In Lower Back Along With Muscle Tightening In Abdomen?

I feel as if I have a lump in my right side near my rib cage. I also have muscle tightening in my right leg and lower abdomen on the right side near my groin. At times, mostly when sitting, I have a burning sensation in my lower back, also on the right side.

Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Whenever there is a visceral pain in abdomen, the overlying muscles tighten up as a response to protect the inner aching organ from touch. It's called guarding effect.

You need a complete physical examination and an ultrasound abdomen to rule out the cause of the pain, and burning sensations and stiffness of muscles.

Please consult a physician and get yourself checked in-office to rule it out properly.


Hope I answered all of your questions. In future, if you need further, detailed and quick assistance on any health issue, feel free to ask me a question by writing my name as a reference in the start of your question. I will get back to you right away. Have a wonderful time ahead.


Regards!
