What Causes Right-sided Back Pain While Standing?

Hello, I have back pain on the right side only, probably muscle - seems to be worse when standing in one place for awhile, for example when washing the dishes - aggravated further today when shoveling snow - only hurts on the one side and never seems to change in intensity once it starts hurting - I assume stretching or some type of exercise would be helpful, just not sure what to do - once I change position (or stop shoveling) the pain is relieved

Hi,

I understand your pain. Following could be the possible reasons for your right sided back pain.

1. Muscular sprain caused by heavy weight lifting or any jerky movement.
2. Sciatica which is compression of lumbosaccral nerves.
3. Deficiency of calcium and vitamin D3.
4. Lumber spondylosis.
5. PID (Pelvic inflammatory disease).

I suggest following test and investigation to rule out your condition. 1. CBC. 2. SR. URIC ACID. 3. RA FACTOR. 4. SR. VIT D3. 5. X-RAY LUMBOSACCRAL SPINE.

IF you were my patient I would have started T. Enzoflam 1 TDS for 5 days. If pain does not subsided, Please meet your doctor along with the required investigation results.

Thanks,
Dr. Shajra Mukadam
