What Could Severe Pain In Lower Back Radiating To Groin Indicate?
Came back,from the ER was unable to walk do to pain in lower back. They did a X-ray which showed nothing. I can walk. Ow but horrible pain in my right side of,the back and sometimes it feels like something is grabbing my groin. I do have a DDD. But this weakness is really killing me. Any ideas
General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
The pain in lower back,being conducted to groin is likely to be uretercolic pain due to renal stones being expelled through ureters. Actually plain X-ray abdomen would reveal it, urine routine test would show crystals of the calicular salt. Self care till you consult an expert: drinking lot of water, Tab Cystone 2 pills three times a day with water would help in expulsion of these stone. Antispasmodic pills like Synalgesic would relieve unbearable pain. You need advise of a surgeon for more specific and personal advise.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
