I have lower back pains,right side pains, pains in right butt cheek down to right leg.What could it be?
It does sound like a bulging disc and sciatica. I have suffered from this for over 20 years. Go to the Doctors or emergency ward at the hospital. They will order Xrays to determine the real cause. Tylenol 3's and anti-inflamatories are the usual medicines prescribed both for the pain and to reduce the inflamation. Complete bed rest is usually the only cure. Lay on your back with pillows under your legs so that your back is straight...this takes the pressure off from the affected disc. You can use ice or a heating pad. I find a heating pad offers the best relief. If you find ice more effective use a bag of frozen peas or corn. Sounds silly but it works. One consequence of repeated disc flareups is often arthritis in your back and permanet nerve damage , both of which I have developed and I find heat gives me the most comfort and relief. Please see your Doctor without delay because this can become a chronic condition if not dealt with in it's earlier stages. Do not do any heavy lifting and really pay attention to the way you move...no sudden or jerky moves. I am now on a disability because of this condition and am not allowed to lift more than 3 pounds, cannot sit or stand for any length of time and cannot work. If it is in fact disc problems you are suffering from, it can be treated or repaired if diagnosed before further damage is done to your back, however if left it will often cause the adjoining discs to deteriorate as well and can become a chronic condition. You should see a doctor as soon as possible. Hope this helps and good luck.

What would be the cause of lower right back pain?
Hi Rettajean. As you can see, the answers on this site can be quite 'diverse'. A correct diagnosis cannot be made from the limited information you give (and without a good physical examiniation). Did your pain start suddenly or gradually? Does anything (e.g. any position) make it better? Have you had this type of pain before? These are some of the basic questions your doctor should ask. Additional questions include the following. Did you injure yourself or do any excessive activity prior to the onset of the pain (sudden twisting or fall or lifting or sports excesses, ect.)? Are you having any difficutly with urination? Change in bowel function? Menstrual problems? Do you have a fever? Chills or night sweats? Leg pains or numbness? Any muscle weakness in the legs? Does coughing or sneezing aggravate the pain? These are just some of the questions that need to be answered to help guide your healthcare professional to a correct diagnosis. Note: If you answer 'yes' to any of the above questions, you really should see your doctor or Chiropractor. Have you tried ice (cryotherapy) to see if that will help the pain? If you do not have an icepack designed for this, you can buy one at any drug store or you can use a large bag of frozen vegetables (corn or peas work well). Place the icepack or veggies in a thin pillow case cover and place that on your area of pain. Apply the icepack for 20 minutes (if you are doing it correctly you will feel periods of cold, burning, aching, pins/needles and then analgesia/numbness). Do not keep the icepack on more than about 20 minutes. You need to give the area a 1 hour period without ice to allow for return of healing blood flow and to prevent frost bite (freezer burn!). After one hour you can apply the icepack again for another 20 minutes. Repeat as needed. Best wishes and good luck!
