hi i am a 16 year old girl who fell down the stairs a few months ago and ever since i have had really bad pains at the bottom of my spin and a really bad pain in my right kidney. i am a bit worried that something is wrong or i may have a kidney infection can you please tell me what the symptons are ??
Hello, Thanks for posting in Chat Doctor. If your both pain symptoms have come after the fall, then they might be related with the injury because of the fall. If the pain in base of spine is very excruciating then it will be advisable to get an x-ray of the part to see for any fracture. The pain in the kidney region might be also because of the blunt trauma. Kidney infection normally have symptoms like fever, burning urination, some whitish particles in urine or may be blood also. Try taking some painkillers for the pain if it's bearable. If the pain still persists after that get an x-ray lower spine and a USG abdomen to look for any abdominal trauma. Thank you
