Dr. Jason Kline answered

Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

See you doctor: Limited by inability to take a complete history and exam. Your BP elevation and fluctuations can certainly be related to pain, so i recommend having your back pain checked out. A urinalysis can help exclude kidney sources of pain.
