Random Stabbing Back Pain

Asked for Female, 23 years

For about a year, at least three times I month I get these random stabbing pains in my lower back. They usually last from 5-10 minutes, though some have been longer. They are extremely painful, I can’t even think when they occur. I’ve tried to pin point what I do right before they happen but so far they are completely random. I’ve recently just started college and had my first attack while away from home. This one was more painful than the others, and rather scary. It lasted for 5 minutes.

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear this. Hmm, this is unusual. Can you tell me a few things honestly? How old are you? What is your routine like? Do you use any social drugs particularly alcohol? When did this pain first appear? What is your weight? Do you have a family history of any health problems, if yes then which one(I am particularly asking about your parents and siblings)? Kindly answer these questions so I can guide you accordingly. I have a feeling this may be related to your gastric and other systems.
