kidney pain

Lower back ache

Kidney pain is discomfort originating from the kidneys, typically felt as a dull ache in the flank—the area between the lower ribs and hips on either side of the spine.

Unlike muscular back pain, kidney pain often radiates toward the abdomen or groin and may signal infection, stones, or other urinary tract problems: The doctor suspected kidney pain rather than a pulled muscle.
