Recurring Lower Back Pain, Lower Abdominal Pain, Bloating, Painful To Sit. Taking Painkillers. Suggestions?

I have recurring lower back pain which also moves round to my hips. In conjunction I also have lower abdominal pain, bloating (comes and goes) and there are veins visible on my lower back. I am just taking pain killers to treat but not sure what else to do, at first i thought the condition was muscular/bone related and i have seen numerous osteos/podiatrist/chiropractor but I am worried it is something more internal - kidney or ovarian related? It is painful to sit, lie and stand, not sure whether it is worth going to a doctor?

Hi, many thanks for the query!
You need to do- RFT, USG KUB, X-ray KUB, CBC, BSL-R, Urine (R/M).
This will help us to know more about renal function & stones in the urinary tract if any.
If stones are found, their location & size is important and treatment can be started accordingly.
USG will tell us if any Hydronephrosis/Hydroureter is there or not.
Drink plenty of water so that at least 2 litres of urine is voided in 24 hrs.
Take antispasmodics, diuretics with your Urologist's opinion.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Regards.
