What Does Pain On The Right Side Of The Waist Indicate?
I have pain on my right side near waistline for past 3/4 weeks. It sometimes goes around my back near right kidney area. My side feels a bit hard but I m overweight. My doctor has given me cocodsnol and naproxen and I d sending me for spine assessment and pain relief injections. I m worried it s something else rather than muscular

welcome to hcm ..as the pain is around kidney area and goes backwards i eould suggest ultrasound abdomen to rule out kidney or ureter problem ..also undergo urine examination to rule out urinary infection
i would also suggest lumbar spine xray ap and lateral view to see if there is any spine problem
if you have any further query then you can come back to hcm i will definitely help you and guide you appropriately
