What Causes Severe Back Pain?
Hello, I have high iron but have been donating blood as per suggestion by my doctor. I had a really bad kidney infection a few months back but no symptoms beside EXTREMELY. Sensitive lower back/ kidneys. I m currently at the end of my period and having intense back pain. Is it just my period or the beginning of a kidney infection?

Hi there.
Back pain can be due to variety of reasons. But back pain with burning sensation on passing urine could be due to urinary or kidney infection. You should get tested for infection in the urine, blood, get an ultrasound of the kidneys and X-ray to look for stones. Take pain killers for relief. Drink 2 litres of water daily.
