Suggest Cause & Medications For Paralyzing Back Pain
Recently I ve been getting really bad shooting pains in my back under the bottom of my left rib cage, the only way I can explain it is it paralizes me for a few minutes when it happens. Is it worth going to new doc because the doctors aren t open now?

Dear patient
Considering your case you might be having renal stone. I would advise ultrasound of kidney ureter and bladder (kub) to confirm diagnosis. Visit radiology center nearby you and get it done. If it's normal Start tab diclofenac plus thiocolchicoside combination twice a day for 5 days. If report is abnormal need to consult expert urologist with report. All the best.
