Can Vaginal Discharge Cause Back Pain?
Hello! I had a slight back pain due to calcium deficiency .I take calcium sometimes if suggested by doctor. Now a days, after being a little close to my would be husband(like holding waist or hugging) I am having this pain much more . And I am guessing Vaginal Discharge as a reason as its happening more. Is it right? What should I do ? Age: 23

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Back ache can occur due to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Calcium deficiency or more exactly vitamin D deficiency can also lead to generalized body aches.
However, presence of vaginal discharge make genital tract infection to be the more likely cause of back ache.
I suggest you to first get the treatment for vaginal discharge and then observe the pain.
Thanks and take care
