Brief Answer:
See gastroentrologist for abdomen pain.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
For abdominal pain , she should see a gastroenterologist. Desired investigations would be stool analysis,CT scan of abdomen and if needed colonoscopy.
Sometimes gynaecological problems can present like this. Please ask her, are there any such complains, particularly are there repeat infections.
Secondly for back pain she needs to see orthopedic doctor and get MRI of spine done.
So first step would be to rule out gynaecological complains and then get stool analysis done.See gastroenterologist and if needed get intestine related investigations done.(sonography cannot evaluate intestines that well).
If the back pain turns out be unrelated to her abdominal pain then see orthopedic doctor to get investigated for spine.
Please ask if there are doubts. Regards.
