Can eating orange cause lower back pain and fatigue?
Patient: My 41 yr old husband is feeling lower back pain on one side and he s very fatigued, and says he doesnt feel well. I dont think its an emergency; but he has had painful kidney stones before-where his back suddenly hurt so bad- he collapsed in the mall and was ambulenced to hosp. It s 7 p.m. and he s already asleep. Hes been feeling this lower back pain for a few days; but he only mentions it about once /day. It could be kidney stones agin. ugh. He has been eating an orange everyday for last several months. And I just read that could cause them again. hmmm.. Doctor: Answer: Hello,Thank you for using Healthcaremagic.I read your question and understood your concern.I think you may have a recurrent kidney stone so get ultrasound examination or ct scan to confirm it.  oranges are citrus fruits and prevent stone formation so you may continue eating them.Dr. Sandeep patil
