Having Pain In Lower Back, Abdomen, Groin Region. Gets Worst On Sitting. What Is The Cause?
Hi, For the last couple of months I have had pain in my lower back, which moves into my abdominal region. Just today I have had pain in my groin for most of the day, which gets better upon standing and worsens upon sitting. When I used the restroom, I felt the pain in my groin go away. What could be causing this? Kidney stones?

Hi
Pain can be due to Kidney stone or the stone might have dropped and got blocked in ureter.
Simple test like ultrasound abdomen will confirm the diagnosis.
Inguinal hernia should also be ruled out.Ultrasound will also diagnose this condition.
Till then,use Analgesic and muscle relaxant.
If you come back with Ultrasound abdomen report,i will clarify further.
Wish you good health
Regards
