kidney infection worries

[Andyw88]

hi guys, been off the site for a while( got rid of my blood clot fears) and now I have back aches, on both of my sides just above my hips, its not an intense pain by any means but it hurts to touch like its a muscle problem or whatever, I have a very long back and since anxiety I have had all round back aches, but the bottom of my back feels kinda numb and aches feels like abit of a trapped nerve, I feel ok no temperature or anything, any helps is appreciated, thanks

Lower back pain isn't uncommon with anxiety, but I would book a doctors appointment just to check it out (it's most likely nothing to worry about) but worth getting peace of mind with it being both sides that are effected.

been to the doctors a week ago didn't seem to concerned, its not so much as a pain, its just like a 1cm place on both sides where it hurts to touch,ive had it before im sure, but if it gets worse ill definitely see a doctor again, but its more of a niggle than a pain really

could it be something to with my bowels, ivee been abit constipated just lately, with like a pressure to take a poo(lol)

I used to have a similar fear even though I had back surgery

When both sides hurt i was sure it was my kidneys

Health anxiety is such a pain in the ass

It's probably more a minor strain/pull somewhere in the lower back (may be a bit of deferred pain), constipation would normally cause abdominal pain, but it's possible.

yeah does feel like its a nerve or pull in the bottom of my back could of been why I had leg pains(blood clot fears) but my girlfriend walked on my back earlier and it didn't hurt anymore, so I doubt hopefully its kidney related,just worried it is and could go undetected,thanks for your help means alot

It's at least something that you got over the blood clot fears. Just shows if you got over one, you can get over all ;)

What aabout eating some veggies with high level of fiber. It takes care of constipation, pains in colon and gives your body minerals and vitamins..
