Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi there, I have pulled my back last Friday (lift-up a box and the damage was done ...) Since approx. Saturday I also can feel pain on both sides of my lower tummy (feels like period pain) Can it be connected ? (back is still hurting)
Yes, it is most likely musculoskeletal pain. While strain in back muscles, it may cause pain in abdomen as well. To confirm, I would suggest ultrasound of abdomen & pelvis, till then muscle relaxant & pain killers are usual prescriptions. Hope this information is useful to you. Thanks. Regards.
