Brief Answer: Causes to left flank pain going thru to back.... Detailed Answer: Hi, The left flank pain you are experiencing which is going through to your back might be related to : - constipation - urinary tract infection - genital infection - kidney stones/infection These problems are often associated with hypertension.
