What Does Severe Pain On The Left Side Of The Back Indicate?
I woke to a stabbing pain in my left back in the middle. I am familiar with symptons of kidney stones for my daughter had one. about a month ago my Dr. started treating me for over active bladder with Oxybutynin. It worked my symptons started to go away. But about a week ago my urine turned very dark and I thought I saw blood so I stopped the pills. Then tonight I woke with this pain. I have already thrown up and desided to do research. The pain has lessened but dull continued ache is present. Should I wait for another attach or seek help I am almost positive it is a Kiddney stone
Hello,.Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health concern
Your symptoms are suggestive of Ureteric stones Xray of kidney, ureter,bladder is required at this point. Drink plenty of water to help flush out the stones. Follow up with the emergency room for appropriate management.
