I been having constant pain in my lower back on the right side. What can be some causes? I am afraid to take tylenol in case it is my kidneys.
It’s been bothering me for a few days now.

Over a year ago I was misdiagnosed in WV with galbladder stones. I was so sick that I flew home to FL with a fever of 103 and they found out my kidneys were filled with fluid that contained MRSA. The doctor who reviewed my CT scan sent from up north had made a quiet comment that the previous doctor who saw me up north should have caught that.

I know that no doctor would testify another doctor (which I respect), but if the CT scan clearly shows my kidneys filled with fluid, can I try to sue?

I’m quite sure I would have gone into septic shock and died had I not been admitted that night.
Who are you to assume I didn’t suffer? Being hospitalized for a month with drains to my kidneys and a PICC line for IV treatment at home for over a month after that THATS DAMAGE to me. I have a post traumatic stress disorder of getting it again, THATS DAMAGE.

Ok, I was dead cert that i had a lower back injury(which does go away after I have neurofen) however theres a small doubt in the back of my mind that it may be my kidneys hurting, thought I didnt think so at first. Only because I am quite a frequent drinker at weekend, i don’t drink silly but i do do it often. is there any way i could distinguish if its back pain or kidney pain? I Was sure it was spine/back pain in my own mind as ive had it a few weeks and it only really happens when i bend down or lift something a bit heavy, anti inflamatory makes it go away, do you think neurofen would make the pain go away if it was my kidneys causing the pain? it also goes away after i’ve rested it and had some sleep, and dosent happen randomly only when i bend/move in certain places. the occasional pain does feel dead center of my lower spine, but then again kidneys are actually closer to the lower spine than i thought which is why i got a bit questionable.

I also am trying not to combine the tablets with alcohol since i’ve heard it can be dangerous, I usually use the neurofen gel for my back at weekend if i’m going out. Any suggestions appreciated! Its just i’m not the best with blood tests so i’d like to get some opinions before i forced myself to maybe go the docs.

Flat red rash down the length of her spinal cord. No other symptoms.
We went to the doctor today and he said that he didn’t think she was in imminent danger. He took 4 vials of blood and said he was checking her antibodies and then sent u for ultrasound of her spleen, gall bladder, pancreas and kidneys. Have to wait until tuesday for all results and am really needing more information. Noone has heard of this.

I have recently started drinking alot more water after a long period of not having drank as much as I should have. I go through this evey few months or so. After a few days of drinking water, I begin to feel pain in my right side, underneath my ribcage, more towards the back. I don’t know if it’s one of my kidneys or my liver or what. The pain can be pretty strong; it usually happens after I’ve consumed quite a bit of water (nothing too extreme, though), and sometimes lasts the better part of a day. Is it just one of my organs detoxing?

Not sure if I spelt that right, but my very low back almost at top of butt, hurts always and when I sit and barely lean forward oh my it hurts so bad, it feels like its starting to run thru my bottom and in to legs in my inner thigh. What could this be?????? At first thought maybe kidneys but had ultrasound done on both kidneys and they were fine.

I have heard that taking medications can be hard on the kidneys. I take several pills daily. I want to make sure I am not confusing the pain I am feeling more to the outside of my back above my bottom, from my disc pain. My pain is different, and that is what draws my concern. I appreciate all feedback. Thanks!!
