What Causes Lower Back Pain In Kids?
My son has lower back pain when he jumps off his right leg and pushing off the right leg. The pain is on the right side. He is very athletic, however he cannot participate fully for an extended period of time. What can this be and should I see a pediatric doctor or a specialist. He is 11 years old.

As he is very athletic, during some sports activity he could have sprained his right hip leading to a dull pain which increases on straining his right side. You can give tab Movon MR one tablet ( if body weight more than 30 kg) after food twice daily for two days and see the result. If the pain continues do a xray right hip with lumber spine and post it to me or consult a pediatrician. If the pain goes away nothing to worry.
