Hello! Welcome to HCM.
You havent mentioned about fever, if any.
This can be musculoskeletal pain or due to stone in urinary tract.
As the severity suggests & back pain is also there, it is more likely stone related pain.
Stone in ureter (tubes connecting kidney & urinary bladder) causes obstruction to urine outflow from kidney to urinary bladder.
Smooth muscles in ureter contract excessively to overcome this obstruction by stone & cause severe colicky pain.
Temporary treatment to relieve pain includes smooth muscle relaxants & pain killers like drotin, voveran, tamsulosin etc.
Many such patients come in my clinic to whom I advise ultrasound abdomen & pelvis, X-ray KUB, renal function tests, urine routine.
Treatment is done accordingly.
Consult your doctor for medicines.
Hope this information is useful.
Wish you healthy life.
Thanks.
Regards.
