What is the cause of the pain in the left side of the waist?

The waist is a part that we are very familiar with, and we may not pay too much attention to any problems that may occur there. But in fact, any disease problem in any part of the body cannot be ignored. So sometimes, symptoms of low back pain may occur due to complex reasons. For example, if there is pain on the left side of the waist, what is the cause of the pain inside the left side of the waist?

Left-side lower back pain may also be caused by left-side kidney stones. If the stones are large, dull pain in the lower back will usually occur. If the stone is small, it may cause left-side lumbar pain and hematuria when moving with large movements.

If you experience left-side low back pain, you can first undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination to rule out the possibility of kidney stones. If the stone is larger than 0.6 cm after color ultrasound examination, lithotripsy is usually required. If the stone is smaller than 0.4 cm and has a relatively smooth surface, you can take stone-removing powder, drink more water, and exercise more to promote stone removal.

For stones larger than 0.6 cm, in addition to laser lithotripsy, oral medications can also be taken to promote stone excretion. If the stone is large, it needs to be crushed in several times. After the stone is removed, the lower back pain will gradually ease and eventually disappear.

Left side back pain may also be caused by exposure to wind and cold.
