Patient's question:
Does kidney ptosis cause lower back pain?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if it's just simple renal ptosis without any other diseases, it generally will not cause lower back pain. If lower back pain occurs, a series of careful examinations should be conducted to identify the cause, such as checking the lateral and anteroposterior X-rays of the lumbar spine to see if there is disc weakness, improving the renal ultrasound to determine if there are urinary stones, etc. If there are urinary stones, it's important to relieve them promptly, drink more water, and avoid holding in urine. If there is a herniated disc in the lumbar spine, it's important to rest.
