What Causes Abdominal And Low Back Pain With Loose Stools?

I have been having low back and abdominal pain on my left side and persistent loose stools for their last 3 weeks I was in their hospital 3 weeks ago with a severe kidney infection and stones. I was on oral Keller before hospitalization and on Rocklin for 2 days in their hospital anCephaloloxin and Flagyl oral for 14 and 10 days following hospitalization. Do I need to be concerned?

Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. The low back pain could be due to the kidney infection and stones. The loose stool could be due to an intestinal infection if you ate from outside, or could be the consequence of an antibiotic induced diarrhoea. However, because of the long duration, I would advise you to consult a gastro enterologist who after a proper clinical assessment might consider an endoscopic assessment of your intestinal tract before starting any new medications.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
