What can a mild sharp pain in a person s back, about waist-high on the right be from? I am female, 54, overweight. It started Saturday evening. It s not severe, but it s there. I can still eat, drink, walk, stand, go to the bathroom, and don t feel nauseous. It s constant and is not brought on by anything I am doing. I read about a gallbladder attack, but the symptoms don t match up completely.
Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through your query in detail and see that you may either be having a fibromyositis of the back muscles or may be a referred pain from an abdominal pathology, most probably a kidney stone. You can take muscle relaxants and apply local gel with hot fomentation. If this does not help, then you should get an abdominal ultrasound done. Do not lift anything heavy. Avoid bending forward. I Hope your query has been answered Best Regards.
