A member asked:
What does it mean when you hurting in your lower back near your kidneys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibilities: The kidneys are off to the left and right of the upper portion of low back. Pain can be from a kidney issue like a stone (intense cramping pain). Pain can also be from a disk problem or spinal degeneration ("arthritis"). Trauma and strains can do it. Less common causes include infections and tumors. If it is severe or persists, see your primary doctor.
