A member asked:
Random minor pain in one spot in back in the area of my kidney, not constant, pain happens and then goes.. happens several times a day since yesterday, no other symptoms, could it be muscular, how can i know the difference?

Good chance it is muscular - treat with warmth and an over-the-counter pain medication if you have no medical contraindication. If the pain persists after 1-2 days, other causes might be considered, such as a urinary tract infection.
