I have been having lower back pain. I have not engaged in aby activity to have caused it. It started on my right side above my hip and sometimes runs down my right leg. It has now moved to my left side and runs about 8 to 10in up from my hip. Doctor has presrcibed Tramodol 50mg which doesnt not help. Also, he has given me a sample of Lyrica 75mg which helps but it totally knocks me out. After doing the google sreach, I am wondering if it might be a kidney infection. If so, how could it treated outside of surgery?
You have not mentioned your age which is very important in case of back pain. As per your history I will advise you to take some painkiller like osteopath or biozobid-plus only when your back pain is worse enough or disturbing your routine work. Apart from this you can take some calcium supplements like shall or toscal-gem once daily preferably in afternoon. You can do some physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist. I will also advise you to sleep on a plain surface as it is very helpful in case of back pain.
