What Causes Kidney Area Pain, Diarrhea With Residual Back Pain?
I m expereincing a alot of pain on my back right side in kidney area, have diahrea. I hurt my lower back 2 days ago but that had seemed to get better but now this is much higher and on just the 1 side. Should I go to emergency room? Hard to sit, lay or stand. Thank you, Mark
The diarrhea is probably due to a stomach flu or bowel infection and unrelated to your fall two days back. Please drink adequate water and eat healthy foods to suppress the diarrhea.
The back pain after the fall is from muscle spasm. After your fall the muscles in the back got injured. These release pain causing substances due to muscle injury a day after your fall. Therefore the pain seemed to get better on the first day and then was severe the following day. This will improve in 3 to 5 days and avoidance of heavy physical activity is suggested. Please apply pain relief ointment. Please do not worry.
