I have a dull aching pain in my very lower right side of my back it s usually not very bad but today its very painful. Its feels like someone is stabbing me with a large metal bar through my lower back and I have no idea how to feel better. what would you suggest
HiT hank you for asking ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. The cause of your backache should be ruled out. Pain due to kidney stone can be ruled out if there is no associated dysuria or recurrent urinary infection. An ultrasound scan should be taken if there is any suspection. Other cause most likely is a sprain or strain due to recent fall. That one can be managed with analgesics and muscle relaxants. If there are any signs of lumbar disc prolapse then an X-ray followed by MRI should be taken if necessary. In such case I advise muscle relaxants like thiocolchicoside NSAIDs like Diclofenac neurotrophic and Physiotherapy. Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.
