What Causes Severe Back Pain And Headache?

Hi Ive been having blood in ny urine on and off since february. I have done urine samples and they just cone back saying that there s blood in them but nothing else like calcium or anything ti indicate an infection. I suffer alot with muscular pain in my back and down my legs. I was also hospitalised before christmas with severe headaches much worse than the migraines I usually get. Could it all be linked?

Blood in urine xannbe related to kidney or urethra problem also. I suggest to visit nephro and urologist for proper testing and evaluation.
Now due to kidney problem also pain can be there at your back but it will not radiate to your legs. Here since you have radiating pain to legs also it can be related to nerve or disc level issue at your back. How ever the conformation will be done by MRI scan of spine.
Here based on MRI scan report if it is showing major problem at disc level then orthopedic doctor will suggest for surgical correction. And if there is no major problem then doctor will guide you for medication for muscle relaxation and anti inflammation. As well doctor will also suggest for physiotherapy treatment which will help for pain relief and relaxation of soft tissue at your back.
Along with this, also do spinal exercises this will help you for improving strength and stamina of your spine.
You can also use hot and cold pack at home for some more pain relief along with muscle relaxation.
You have ask here for headache also, let me tell you if there is a problem at cervical spine level then headache is possible. But not always. So even after relieving spinal pain if headache is present then you need to consult neuro physician and take needed treatment.
Take care.
