A member asked:

Im having sharp pain in my back, and green stools.could this be a kidney problem?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and no: The sharp pain in the back can be due to kidney stones or infection in the kidney. However, you have to make sure it isn't back problems as well. Green stool is likely from intestinal causes rather than the kidney.
