I have a lot of pain in my back on my left hand side right around the area of my Kidney. It feels like a nerve twitching and it also feels like there is boiling water swishing around in my back. It is very uncomfortable. Don't know what it is. HELP PLEASE

The pain is not like a muscle pain it is very deep inside. I have had siatic nerve problems during both of my pregnancies it is not that. It feels very deep its not an aching pain it is like a crushing burning pain and there is twitching deep inside but not like a nerve twitch.

I'd start with a visit to your doctor to make sure it isn't a kidney infection or similar problem. If it's from the muscles around your spine or a bulging back disk, the following website give exercise that really do work. I could hardly stand without assistance from a bulging disk, and this treatment took care of it.

Pain can be referred from places other than the head. This deals with headaches but the principle works for all kinds of pain.
Muscles get knots called trigger points. These make the muscles tight causing them to press on nerves and other thing.
#1 The first thing is to take a couple swigs of molasses or eat a couple of bananas. They contain magnisium and potassium both of which muscles need.
#2 WATER she should be drinking 1/2 gallon minimum. The head of neurology at UCDavis likens a body running low on water to a car running low on oil (the engine can seize).
Get a good (deep tissue) massage (to loosen the trigger points) on the back, shoulders and neck. Make sure to press up at the base of the skull where it meets the spine.
You rub or lightly scratch everywhere on your head. You will hit spots that are tender these are trigger points. The idea is to rub across them 6-12 times per session up to six times per day until they go away.
For more information on trigger points read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies.

It could be a kidney infection. If not it could be a pinched nerve. I had a pinched nerve in my left hip for about 2 years in high school. I would take 2 aleve first thing in the morning and by the time I got to school I would be almost doubled over because I couldnt' walk right. It was in my hip and down my leg though. You might want to see a doctor to rule out anything serious.

Here is a simple remedy until you see your doctor.Massaging the back muscles will reduce the pain.Apply an icepack to the affected area. This will make the area numb and reduce the pain. More details and remedies at http://aches.in/backpainremedies.html

Possibly Sciatica(central nerve off of lower back running down right and left leg). I've had what you described along with numbness and sometimes shooting pain down my leg to my toes.Got Chiropractor relief.
