What causes lower back pain with stomach pain?
Patient: I have been having lower back pain for some time now. In the last couple of months I have had stomach pain. I feel like there is something sitting under my ribs and pushing up. The only way to get relief is by sitting up straight. I was engaging the lawn mower blade one day and something popped out from under my ribs causing me great pain. I had to sit up straight and kind of push it back under my ribs. The other day the pain was real low as if something wanted to pop out. Doctor: Are you able to feel the structure which is coming out.  Because it can be a hernia.  My advice to you is that you should get ultrasound of your abdomen.  This will give us idea if any thing really coming out of  your abdomen.  Also I would encourage you to avoid spicy or heavy protein diet.
