What causes lower right back pain?
Patient: Very painful lower right back duting most movement. No pain when I lay level on my left side. Advile and icy hot tens therapy are helping but not much. Lifted light weights yesterday with no pain.  This is very painful today and is also felt on the outside of my right hip.  No fever or sweats. Doctor: Hello! Thank you for writing! Is your pain associated with numbing, or tingling on your leg, or is the pain associated with other signs? How is its time decours? It's more painful in the morning or at night? What is the character of the pain? When it begins, is it constant or not? What are the factors that make it worse? What is your job, please? Is it related with lifting heavy weights? Have had a car accident or falling from height? I suggest you to visit an Orthoped. You may need to do a lumbar MRI, but better first visit an orthoped and he will tell you. Wish you good health. Best regards.
