Dull pain in lower back



Recommended Posts

Hi all

I am 9 days post op and really uncomfortable. I have a dull pain all over my lower back that sometimes radiates to the front. I drink anywhere between 48-64oz of Water per day. I had stopped taking my pain meds but restarted when this pain began yesterday. I thought it was because I had drank iced tea but that was once, on the 7th. My urine is really dark though which leads me to believe I'm dehydrated. I would appreciate any help. I'm worried!

Yes, I take that each day. actually in the last hour I have been downing Water and have had a lot of movement in the intestines. I hope for the pain to subside.

I have been having terrible back pain as well. My hubby says it is because my back is used to carrying around a lot more weight than it is now and it needs to adjust for my new lighter weight, I am almost 4 weeks out. As far as the dark urine, was it just from the tea?

Sound like gas pain. I had the same pain around 2 weeks post. I asked my husband to massage my back and it released the gas.

If your urine is dark, it could be a kidney stone.

@@kell778,

It could very well be a combination of dehydration and Constipation. not sure if you are having that problem but it has caused the exact same symptoms with me. That gas build up can really cause a lot of pain in your back and lower intestines.

The best thing to do is hydrate like crazy and call your doctor to get a solution for constipation if in fact you are having that problem. Gas x strips or chewable so might help as well.

Good luck and feel better soon!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
