Im 20 years old and a couple of weeks ago
I got a urinary tract infection. I began
having a dull back pain in my lower back
on the right side. I no longer have the
uti but I still have the back pain. My
physical activities have not changed.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

You probably have a kidney infection.
That will definetly cause back pain.

Did you take medicine for the uti? That
should have prevented it from turning into
a kidney infection, but of course, you
should have a test for that. Another
thing that causes back pain is ovary
problems. I had cysts on my ovaries that
caused back pain. It may or may not be
your problem, but is worth looking into.
