What Is The Pain In My Lower Back?

I am having pain in my lower left side of my back. It comes and goes over and over, kinda like contractions. It will last a few hours to a day or so. I can take pain meds and it helps. It will go away for a few days then come back again. Can this be a kidney stone?

First get ultrasound to check if any stone is present. If report is not showing any stone than it can be muscle strain. I would suggest you to start Muscle relaxant like Myoril or Myospaz. Also you should take warm water shower. You should also learn back muscle strengthening exercises from physiotherapist . It will give power to your muscles so you would not have such pain in future. till than you avoid pizza delivary by bike.
