You are getting enough water. If you get on tren you'll need to drink more. Try uping your water alittle and if that dosen't help go see your doc. Better too be safe than sorry. Good luck

What kind of pain are you experiencing? Lower back pump? Currently using dbol by any chance?

Last week I had some severe (I mean severe) lower back spasms that caused a soreness in the back musles, enough that it felt like I was having a kidney problem. I've had lower back pumps before, but this was really bad *can't say that enough*. It didn't even happen while working out, it was like the middle of the day.

Based on what I briefly learned, some of the signs for it being a real kidney problem are difficulty/painful urination, high fever, vomiting and/or nausea. But of course, your doctor could tell you much much more with a couple test.

D-bol kicks the shit out of my back but no where near as bad a anadrol ( oxy ) ...

Both give me back pumps to the extent i can hardly tie my own shoes ... ( thats bad )

I can drink water till the cows come home but barly get much relief from it .. stop the d-bol or oxy and the back pain goes away .. ( tryed milk thistle as well , did nothing !! )

Lower back pain can also be caused by prostate issues !!!! " this is a signal !!! "
Certain steriods have an effect on prostate enlargement which is something to be watchfull of for the over 40 crowd ...


What colour is your urine ? what orals are you taking right now ?

A common thought is that kidney pain is in your lower back, when in reality they are more in the middle. If you are experiencing pain in your low back it probably isn't kidney..

I've had that ache before from dbol and anavar. It stopped after a day or two though, and advil worked in the mean time.

Incorrect statement, low back pain may/or may not be an indication of renal problems. a more in depth assessment needs to be done, when did it start, describe the pain, does it get worse during urination, position changes, or having a bowel movement. checking for costovertebral angle tenderness, getting a complete health history including medication, supplements. bloodwork, urine culture, i can go on for days. i do agree with you about the anatomical position of the kidneys being a little higher up than most people believe with variation between right and left kidney, nonetheless ,you saying lower back pain probably not being related to renal disorders is a little inaccurate.

Just because, you have back pains dosn't mean it's your kidneys, I get back pain all the time from work and bending and lifting shit, You could get it from sitting in an ocward position on the computer...But hey if you feel nervous about it go see the Doctor, Hell if you can afford a Chiropractor you can get to the Doctor..But I wouldn't really concern myself to much about it.....

 

[jmt24]

its more of a constant throbbing/soreness/ feeling. not really a pump feeling, and no, im not on dbol. i was just hoping to get some opinions and see if this has happened to anyone before. im goin to the chiro tomorrow and we'll see what he says. thanks guys.

Go to a chiropractor - they should suggest that you get an x-ray done (ask for one if they don't). This will give him a direct view of your spine to see if your spine is in the correct position (I'm willing to bet it is not). Many people with lower back pain have what is known as 'subluxation of the spinal cord'. Some subluxations occur from accidents or specific injuries however many develop through our regular lifestyle. Poor posture, improper lifting, long periods of sitting, stress and chemical imbalances (drug, alcohol, toxins etc) can all lead to subluxations. A study was done by a German doctor who tested 1000 newborn babies to see the positions of their spines after the birthing process. What he found was that 47% had moderate to severe subluxations.
Improper spinal function can rub, choke, 'pinch' or irritate the delicate spinal nerves. You may feel pain, tingling, numbness or a pins and needles effect. The messages your nerves are sending may be altered or blocked causing dysfunction in other body parts.
With spinal joint malfunction the discs, ligaments and other connective tissue are also affected. the soft, pulpy discs that separate each spinal vertebrate can tear, bulge, herniate or degenerate. Inflammation and swelling accompany the accumulation of blood and lymph, causing a rise in temp. You may develop swelling or tenderness (this may account for the discomfort you are feeling in your lower back area).

No matter what anyone tells you on here, no one BUT a doctor can properly diagnose your condition. If you do (and I suggest that you do) see a chiropractor, be sure that x-rays are taken. Any chiropractor can simply start doing adjustments, but without a clear understanding (which cannot be properly determined without x-rays) the problem will only persist.
Good luck

 

[jmt24]

he took xrays last week so this time he'll be able to diagnose it, hopefully.

IMO I would be warry of the chiropractor.....they can cause a lot more problems than they solve. DUDE!! Particularly the spine and neck. I can't see any benefit to being tied up like a pretzel.

My dad went to one when he had a little neck pain.....well the guy really f-ed him up....gave him a pinched nerve. Then he had to go to the real doctor to get fixed up.

I think anyone would be hard pressed to find one MD that had anything good to say about a chiropractor.

My good friend is a chiro and he thinks his patients are idiots for believing his bullshit voodoo treatments. He figures people gotta spend their $$$ somehow. If they weren't spending it on him they'd probably spend it on booze or other femaral pleasures anyway.

Also, the human body can tolerate quite a bit of abuse. Unless you've been megadosing roids for yrs and eating tons of fast food I doubt it's your kidneys-but who knows?

 

[lanky]

lol at spinal adjustment

 

[lanky]

i take that statment back. if it keeps them off the ortho med/surg floor at my hospital i will be happy.

 

[BLACKDOOG]

what kind of gear are you taking? If you are using dbol anadrol or suspension your lower back pain is just a muscle pump. If you were having kidney problems you would be sick as hell.

has anyone had any problems with there kidneys putting pressure on there lower back. im goin to the chiropractor but my friend told me he had similar pain and it was bc of his kidneys. im afraid that the gear is giving me probs, but i do take cran extract several times throughout the day. thoughts???

 

[jmt24]

my current cycle is in the signature. i went to the chiro today and we found out that the L5 region, i think, is what's causing my prob and he did some adjustments and i got a massage and it felt great.

 

[big49ersfan]

if you think it is kidnesy and you can get a docs appointment quickly (you should) get dip stix they are little stix that they measure things like

- blood
-protein
-glucose
-ketones

all on different sticks dont know if you can get OTC if you can do it post your results up here or call a doc with the results and he will eb able to rule out any kidney problems.

for liver problems you will need to have bloods taken tho.

Hi,whenever i get lower back pain,i get on my INVERSION TABLE and just hang there upside down for 10 to 15 minutes and no more lower back pain for a day or two. It naturally realigns any misaligned vertebra and is much cheaper over the long run than paying a chiropractor.
I`ve been using my inversion table for several years and i know for sure it has kept me out of a chiropractors office.

 

[jmt24]

when i move, maybe ill pick one of those up. i dont have room in my apt right now for an inversion table. im thinking of goin to the sports authority and getting one of those big blowup balls you see in the gym. it helps when i lay back on one of those.

I would skip the chiropractor and get some blood work done. Tell them you think you have kidney pains and see what the blood work says.

Chiropractors serve their purpose but they should be used in limited circumstances. In most instances, long term chiropractor case can lead to more problems. The majority of chiropractors adjust the spine but do not give out the proper exercises to keep the spine stabilized. Back problems are cause by two things: misplaced vertebrae and underdeveloped muscles. Chiropractors only hit the misaligned vertebrae. If you do not do the proper exercises following a visit to strengthen the muscles (which will keep the vertebrae in place) your problems will not be solved.

All of my back problems were aggravated by a chiropractor because he would put them in place but over time the joints became so lose they would pop-in and pop out on a regular basis. I saw a physical therapist and I was given a series of exercised to strengthen my lower back muscles (and my lower abdominals which are very important for lower back support - the chiropractor didn't tell me that!) Two months of kicking out the physical therapists exercises fixed me for good. If I ever get minor lower back pains I simply integrate the PT's exercises and I am good to go.

 

[Maxx Out]

how much water are you drinking?

That was the first thought to go through my head too! Very important part of a cycle, especially if it contains orals!

 

[missionpossible]

I have to agree with the bros that are telling you to go to a real Dr, not a quackopractor. Get bloodwork and urinalisis from directlabs at the least, you dont want kidney problems bro.
