What Causes Severe Backache While Suffering From UTI?

I went in to see a doctor last weekend on Sunday, it’s Thursday now. I went in due to a UTI, but I’ve been taking antibiotics since Sunday. I had intense back pains when I went in and I’m still having the same kind of pain. I’m really scared that it’s something more than a UTI.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I have gone through your query. Better to do a urine culture and sensitivity test to rule out pathogen causing infection and to know the susceptible antibiotic.

Ultrasound examination also should be done to rule out possible kidney damage.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nishad BN
