What Causes Back Pain In A 28 Month Old?

My 28-Month-Old was crying tonight before, while and after we gave him a bath. He said his back hurt him. He said it hurt a few times while we were driving home from his grandma's house. I asked him if he hit it on something, and he said the stool; however, this is the second time he's said his back hurt. I thought it was his belly at first, because of the way he was acting.

hi thanks for your question.

back pain in a 2 year old is not normal and could be because of a number of causes including but not limited to an infection in his back such as a discitis or a urinary tract infection.

you should see your dr and have some blood work done and further tests as necessary.

best wishes
