What Causes Constant Pain On Lower Back?

I have a dull constant pain on left side of lower back that is intense. I noticed when i get this pain i usually have a bowel movement sometime after. No other symptoms. Had it about a week but it is there all day. It comes all of a sudden and i cant figure what caused it. No straining or sudden movement. Comes without any provocation

Hello
I share your concern
Looking at your description this could be related to lower spine ( back bone), kidney or intestine or back muscles
I would advise you to take ibuprofen for pain relief and stretching exercises under supervision of a physiotherapist.

Simultaneously if you can get an appointment with your GP, I would advise you for fee investigations like X are LS spine and urine test or an ultrasound if it worsens further

Sleep on a hard bed
Avoid sudden bending forward or lifting heavy weight
Have plenty of fluids and multivitamin with calcium supplements
