A member asked:
Both either sides of my back hurt. spots are in the exact same spot just on either side of my spine. could it be my kidneys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extremely unlikely: The symptoms described in the question most likely stem from a muscular problem and unrelated to the kidneys. Extremely rare, conditions involving the kidney such as bilateral hydronephrosis and PCKD can manifest this way.
