Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the consultation at my virtual clinic!
I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns today and will put my best efforts to get you out of this situation.


The discomfort or pain if related to the kidneys, may have more intense presentation than you have.

Kidney pain due to stones is very severe. Yes--you may have mild to moderate pain in case of infection involving kidneys.


You need to go for an ultrasound kidney ureter and bladder; Urine complete analysis and Urine culture and sensitivity to completely rule out the kidney disease involved in this case.


Other causes for this back discomfort may be:-
Muscular spasm.
Constipation.
Indigestion.

For that a thorough physical examination is needed to see if this is a muscular spasm pain (and if there is no associated gastrointestinal symptoms).


For spasm of the back muscles:-
Apply Voltaren gel, massage gently and apply heat pad.
Apply ThermaCare HeatWraps on the back muscles for soothing effects.
Take Excedrin by mouth for pain.
