A member asked:

Ive had severe lower back pain for 5 days. the pain has begun to wrap around to my abdominal area and it hurts to take a deep breath. feel bloated.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can check: Back pain on either side of the spine (called flank pain by doctors) can be caused by kidney disease or other abdominal disorders, especially if the person doesn't remember hurting her back by lifting or working too much. Other abdominal problems (occasionally serious ones such as a tumor) can also show up as back pain, so evaluation by a doctor is needed.
