Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What internal organ could cause lower back pain. Could kidney problems for example cause back pain? Are there any other organs that can cause back pain? Could a hernia cause back pain? I want to know if there is anything else other than actual damage to the back that can cause back pain? Thank you, Jim
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have lower back pain . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like lifting something heavy , poor posture , being overweight , smoking or trigger points of trapezius muscle . The pain can also occur due to kidney problem , pancreatitis and liver swelling . I would suggest you to avoid lifting heavy weight , apply warm compresses , take proper rest , do light trapezius stretching and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . If condition doesn't get better then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order x-ray or CT scan and physical examination . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant along with anti inflammatory and physical therapy and light stretching .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
