default
Posted on Tue, 22 Jul 2014
Question: I have been having lower back pain and front right pain. It is constant dull pain, and in the back I feel a spot like a knot or lump that is about 2 inches by 1/2 inch. When I drink alcohol I the pain gets very worse, then goes back to dull. I am also having issues being constipated but not fever. Very frustrating it will not go away.

It hurts on the lower right hip area front and back. The pain is so bad if can lay on my right side. No fever or issues passing urine. No vomiting but still constipated even after taking laxatives. Advil doesn't relieve the pain either. I have had off and on pain in my testicals prior to this in my back and stomach a few days prior. Special right testical.

Brief Answer:
Get investigated.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
This can be Ureteric colic. Also you are saying it is very severe.
I would advise you to get following investigations immediately:
1. Ultrasound Abdomen.
2. Kidney Function Test.

This should rule out the cause of pain.
Till then for pain you can take Drotaverine available with name Drotin DS. Also take a drug like Pantoprazole with it as most of the times pain killers cause acidity.
Revert back with Ultrasound report.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay healthy.
