What Causes Severe Pain In The Lower Back On The Left Side?

I have been having severe pain in the lower left side of my back just under the ribs and the pain is the worst when I lie down in a prone position. I think its kidneys stones but I have done everything I can at home for removing kidney stones naturally for over two weeks with no results.

Hello,

The symptoms can be related to the kidney stones.

I recommend doing an ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis.

Meanwhile, I recommend using Buscopen for the pain.

I also recommend drinking liquids.

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