Hello there,
Thanks for writing in .
I feel it would be best if you visit your physician immediately. Your symptoms of back pain, lower abdominal pain and pulsation on the abdomen, make me want to rule out an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Even though your age , risk factors etc don't fit into the picture, it would be best to rule it out.
In case you don't have any further queries, kindly accept my answer. Any reviews are welcome.
Have a great day.
Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
