What Causes Pain In The Lower Back And Frequent Urination?
76 year old male with history of kidney stones having low back pain. is up frequently to urinate but he also has BPH. Urine is cloudy, running a low grade temp of 99.4 {temp was taken this morning}. Doesn t seem to be flank pain but this is how it started last time. At that time he was taken by ambulance to Greeley, Co from Sterling, Co. with the plan of having emergency surgery. the procedure didn t happen for 12 hours though, so he is a bit wary of going in to get checked.
