Left loin pain for 3 weeks

so 3 weeks ago I had a pain in my back I put it down to a possible strain thought my dog had maybe pulled on the lead. 5 days after I had excruciating pain and was in tears and had to call 111 this pain did ease but for 3 weeks the pain has been constant more of a dull pain then I will get a stabbing sudden pain. doctors put me on ciprofloxacin for a suspected kidney infection and asked for me to have blood test and xray. blood tests came back high ferretin and xrays showed stones in kidney bladder and uteric tube. I was told to go to a and e where I had ct scan which showed nothing . my urine tests have been fine but the pain remains I feel like the doctors have now washed their hands of me and the pain is worrying me. I hardly ever go to the doctors but in 3 weeks I have had 4 doctor visits 2 blood tests x ray ct scan 2 antibiotics and painkillers

is it a type of pain that gets numb from icing the area? have you tried moist heat? look on amazon for "Hydrocollator Pad". A must have if you endure chronic back pain. I also recommend you purchase a muscle stim unit that does TENS and EMS at a minimum and better, has Interferential as well. self therapy for the back goes a LONG way towards managing pain and speeding recovery. I've had to wear my muscle stim Unit throughout the work day amd sleeping many, many times.

I'd go see a neurosurgeon who will most likely order an MRI. The tests you've had to date focus on urinary issues, infection, and possible tumor. (Well, x-ray would show any fracture or arthritic condition if they x-rayed your back). MRI will most likely reveal any back injury.

Good luck

thank you for your reply the pain is now more in the front than the back been over 3 weeks now and I cant sleep on the side and uncomfortable at my desk at work

you been checked for shingles??

doctors havent been very good if I'm honest being referred to a urologist and having a ct scan for my stomach and bladder. this is 3 1/2 weeks of stomach pain now which is constant which is worrying. would I have other symptoms with shingles ? I'll have a read about it now

shingles would manifest by now in sores...
