Having Back Pain, Puffy Eyes, Tiredness. Prescribed Ointment And Anti Inflammatory Tablets. Suggest

I started with lower back ache about three weeks ago....I say ache rather than pain....it felt more like an ache around my kidneys...the doctor did a urine test that came back clear...then did a hip x ray, again clear. For the last week my eyes have been very puffy especially in the morning. I've been prescribed an ointment for cinjunctivitus and anti inflammatory tablets for the back ache...neither of which seem to be making any difference. I've also been feeling very tired, and slept for virtually the whole day yesterday.

hallo dear friend
i hv studied your case
your symptoms suggest some systemic disorder involving multiple systems
back pain can also be due to renal calculi so you may need USG abdomen n pelvis
do you had any injury to back ?
your age?
you need some blood test for connective tissue disorder

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.Forum.
You had low back pain 3 weeks ago, around kidneys, two weeks latter the eyes became puffy, in the morning. you was given ointment and anti inflamatories for conjunctivitis. urine test and X ray came out normal.
It appears to be arthritis of the spine, infection in the ureters, or small stones in the ureters. Puffy ness of the face could be due to Over the counter anti inflamatories for pain relief.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have M.R.I. besides other routine tests for confirmation.
Wishing for aa quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Seemingly unrelated complaints - conjunctivitis, back pain, tiredness... viral infection, allergy and so on should be considered
You have not stated your age, gender, personal habits, family history or co-morbidities
You should see an Internist / get examined / need more get investigations.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
