Patient's question:
In March, my waist started to feel a bit sore, and by April, the pain became really severe. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found I had kidney stones, 2x2mm in size. The doctor said the kidney stones have nothing to do with the waist pain. After the examination, the waist seemed fine, but recently, the pain has become really bad—every time I bend over, it hurts a lot, but it doesn't hurt when I'm straight.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, lower back pain is more likely to be caused by kidney stones or lumbar spine issues, and further detailed examination is needed. It is recommended to have an X-ray of the lumbar spine and an abdominal ultrasound, drink more water to enhance metabolism, and eat light, easily digestible foods while avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Prostate conditions can be stabilized, but treatment usually takes a long time and is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and during the treatment period, it is advisable to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a proper diet.
