If you have a Kidney infection, it will swell and cause presure onthe surrounding nerves which will cause the back pain.It will be the same if you have kidney stones, other organs in the body can have the same type of symptome.

Inability to control your bladder is a sign of acute spinal cord compression at the base of the spine. This is a serious condition which he had to ask you about because it needs to be referred immediately and if you had it and he didn't ask his *** would be grass.

sometimes, when you have back pain it can be a sign of a kidney infection, or kidney stones or maybe your kidneys something in the urinary tract so don't over look it. it sounds like a strange question but sometimes it does mean something. in your case hopefully not.....wish you well.
