What is the cause of pain on the right side of the lower back?

In daily life, many people may experience dull pain in the lower back. There are many reasons for lower back pain, which may be caused by lumbar disc herniation, muscle fatigue, spinal canal stenosis, kidney deficiency, and lower back injury. So what are the reasons for right side lower back pain in men?

Lower back pain on the right side of the body is a common condition among men. It is not only caused by excessive fatigue and sitting posture, but also by many diseases, including urinary and reproductive system infection, kidney deficiency, lumbar disc herniation, lumbar muscle strain, etc. Let's take a closer look.

1. The most common disease of low back pain is kidney deficiency. In addition to low back pain, kidney deficiency also causes decreased male sexual function, decreased sexual interest, decreased libido, impotence or short erection time, frequent spermatorrhea, premature ejaculation, optical microscope examination shows decreased sperm or decreased sperm motility, infertility, aging, memory loss, insomnia, poor appetite, bone and joint pain, backache and weak legs, fatigue, and drowsiness. The symptoms of kidney deficiency at the urinary level are mainly manifested as frequent urination, urinary urgency, urination delay, and difficulty urinating.

2. Men's low back pain may also be caused by urinary and reproductive system infections. Low back pain is mostly caused by acute or chronic pyelonephritis, which is mainly manifested as swell and pain in the waist. In severe cases, it radiates along the urethra to the vulva. In addition to urinary and reproductive system infections, diseases such as urinary stones and tuberculosis can also cause low back pain.

3. Intervertebral disc disease can also cause low back pain. With the increase of age, the symptoms of compression of the intervertebral disc nerves will also increase. Latent spinal column dislocation caused by degenerative changes is a common disease, which can easily cause lumbar stenosis, compression of spinal nerves and nerve roots, and low back pain and radiating pain in the lower limbs, usually due to pyramidal collapse fractures caused by osteoporosis. The formation of osteophytes in the elderly can cause spinal muscle stiffness and persistent low back pain.

4. Low back pain in men may also be caused by lumbar muscle strain. Women who work in long-term standing positions, such as textile, printing and dyeing, hairdressing, sales, etc., have weakened flexion and extension of the tendons and ligaments in the waist due to continuous standing. Excessive lactic acid bacteria may accumulate in the parts, inhibiting the normal metabolism of the lumbar disc, which may also cause low back pain caused by lumbar muscle strain. Frequently carrying objects on the back and bearing weight on the waist can easily cause scoliosis, leading to lumbar muscle strain and low back pain. In addition to the above reasons, other causes of low back pain include lumbar bone hyperplasia, bone spurs, lumbar disc herniation, intervertebral disc hypertrophy, spinal canal stenosis, lumbar fracture, spinal canal tumor, chronic lumbar trauma or muscle strain, lumbar muscle strain, ankylosing spondylitis, etc.
