Could Severe Pain In Lower Back Be Due To Some Infection?

Hi I've been having pain at night and wake up at night many times to turn over to ease the pain. Its kind of an all over pain,but stronger in the lower back. i was wondering if I have an infection of some sort because antibiotics seem to clear up the pain. Sometime after completing a round of antibiotics the pain returns.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.The Lower back pain for you is most likely a pain due to strain or a herniated disc.If you have some dysuria then we can suspect an urinary infection.An x ray of lumbosacral spine will help to clear it.Sometime an MRI will also be needed to get enough information.Analgesics muscle relaxants and physiotherapy will give relief in most of cases.Hope this may help you.Let me know if you have any further query.
