Many things: Many infectious problems can cause such symptoms. Most common would be a urinary tract infection or kidney stone.  Often this will come with burning during urination.

skin abcess 3-4 days ago, drained, now feel lethargic, nauseous, and low back pain but no fever ( temp actually lower than usual) help please?

Go back to doctor: It is unclear whether you were given an antibiotic, what the bacteria was that caused the abscess or how deep the abscess was.  Sometimes bacteria can get into the blood stream from an abscess like this and spread to other areas of the body.  Go and be seen again.

Nsaids otc first: If no better or pain intractable needs to see a physician 
Could be anything from as simple as muscle sprain to something complex

Question 9

i took a home uti test, negative results. i have lower back pain, low fever, trouble urinating completely, small amounts. could this still be a uti?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: The home UTI tests are not perfect and can miss infections, especially if drinking lots of fluids and urine is dilute. Also, other things could cause these symptoms, such as intestinal or pelvic infection. You should be seen professionally. If the back pain is severe or fever over 100F (38C), contact your doctor today -- or an urgent care clinic or hospital ER if s/he isn&#x27;t available. Good luck!

Question 10

have been checking my poop for the past couple days and i have had lower back pain low grade fever, also in the poop has been little worm type mucus ?

Accepted Answer

Back pain &amp; fever.: Back pain and fever for a couple of days is concerning.  Fever is anything over 99.6 (less is normal).  So if you have a fever and back pain go to an ED or UC or call your doc. Could be an infection, could be something else (serious or minor) but can't say for sure with info available.
