? kidney stone: The pain could be due to a kidney stone, but could also be secondary to discogenic or facetogenic bony back issues. Since this is persistent, see your doctor, confirm diagnosis, and treat as appropriate. This will improve quality of life.

Get checked: more typical of spinal arthritis than kidney. need to see MD and get urinalysis and possibly imaging of spine
