How To Treat Lower Back Pain?
Hi , I just received a report from an xray I had on 6/27, because I was having back pain, however ,when I read it it said there were atherosclerotic calcifications within the abdominal wall, how common is this? and should i be worried about it, i have polycycstic kidney and liver, and 4 years ago had half my liver removed, could that have caused this issue?

Atherosclerotic calcification is common in elder age group. As your half of the liver removed before 4 years. You should do ultra sound and bone scan.
So after doing this test you should consult your family physician.
