What Does Pain In The Lower Back On The Right Side Indicate?

Good evening, I am a male 64 years old and started having lower right side back pains a few days ago. That pain has become more pronounced and the area of pain has grown and now includes my right side and right front abdomen. I have no fever and only a slight headache that comes and goes. Any thoughts?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Get x-ray KUB, ultrasound abdomen and urine RE done. There may be small renal calculi or stones that may be causing such pain. It's better to have a little workup.

Till then, take tablet Drotaverine and tablet Diclofenac Sodium for 5 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rana Ahsan Javed
