Lower back pain is another potential indicator of renal angiomyolipoma. The pain typically occurs on one side of the back, near the location of the affected kidney. The discomfort can range from mild to severe and may worsen with movement or when lying down. Similar to abdominal pain, lower back pain can be caused by the tumor pressing on surrounding structures or by a rupture of the angiomyolipoma.
It’s essential to discuss any persistent lower back pain with your healthcare provider, as it could be a sign of renal angiomyolipoma or another underlying condition. Early detection and treatment can help prevent complications and improve your overall health. (3)
