What Causes Constipation Along With Lower Backache And Abdominal Bloating?
have not had a bowel movement for three days. pain in lower back, right side. Feel bloated. checked in to emergency room two days ago, and they did a CAT scan and said I had a kidney stone. Waiting for it to pass through; however, what does that have to do with my bowel function?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Sometimes it happens that severe pain decreases bowel movements reflexly.
Try pain killers and antispasmodic medications - Tablet diclofenac, Injection buscopan
It will help to relieve stone pain and bowel spasm
For kidney stone - drink plenty of water. if stone is less than 5 mm it will pass out on its on.
usually >8 mm stones require surgical removal.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards
Dr. Hiren
