Is Severe Pain In Lower Back Due To Kidney Stones?
I have lower back pain originating on the left side and radiating to the right. Weakness in the legs, can t bend over and then stand up straight. I have an appointment with a chiropractor tomorrow but thought it might be a kidney stone. Is that a possibility?
Hii , Welcome To HCM & Thanks For Asking Your Query Here
I have gone through Your query and will try to provide information you need on it
From the medical history you provided it may or may not be due to kidney stone , a kidney stone rarely cause any leg weakness , however there are variety of other medical conditions apart from kidney stone which can cause your problem including spinal and neurological origin
but seriously it needs thorough medical examination and investigations before making any confirm diagnosis
so i would strongly suggest you to see a Urologist to rule out any underlying Medical condition
I hope it help Thanks & Get well Soon
