I am 78 year old male. I have been suffering with lower back pain for 5 weeks and now both sides of my kidneys hurt. I have been taking a lot of motrin, could this be the cause? I have been seeing a chiropractor and been treated for a ballooned disc.
Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to back pain. I suggest doing a X-ray for further evaluation. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. I also suggest physical therapy. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
