What Causes Pain In The Lower Left Back?

For the last 3 days I have experienced moderate pain in my lower left back when upright and especially when I inhale deeply. I have not slept well the last 3 nights and cannot seem to get comfortable. It feels to me like the kidney area but I checked the symptoms of gall and bladder stones and don t seem to have the symptoms of either affliction. I have been riding my bicycle a lot the last week but don t believe that I have strained anything back there. Thank You.

Hello,
Welcom to Healthcaremagic.com.

While I have gone through your query it seems to me either muscle spasm or nephrolethiasis (Kidney stone).
First of all you need to concentrate if it is skeletal or muscle related there will be low pain during morning and rest condition.
If it is kidney related it can some times be choleky(episodes of pain)
You must go for an ultrasound scan to confirm if there is anything related to kidney.
During mean time have some extra fluid and rest.

Hope you will be healthy soon.
Regards
