Backache UTI?

When you have a uti, where in your back do you feel the pain? I have had a bachache since monday. It's really quite painful and I'm not sure at what point you go to the doctor. I do not usualy suffer from bach ache luckily and I dont think the doctors can do anything anyway but I am awating an ultrasound to check for fibroids which are causing bladder pressure symptoms and frequent urination and wondered if they are now causing pressure pain in my back? I don't suppose anyone has any experience of back pain from fibroids or UTI's? TIA

Is UTI a kidney infection or bladder infection? A friend of mine had it and the pain was in her lower bak and on the sides, where the kidneys are. HTH

Thanks tugamommy. My pain is mainly lower back but radiates up either side of my spine and aroud the right hand side. I have never had a kidney or bladder infection before or back ache so I cant define what i'm feeling. It feels a bit like when you go in to labour, that sort of back ache.

I have no experience on this, but if it is an infection than you should be on antibiotics sooner rather than later? Why have you been sent for a scan for fbroids and it hasn't been assumed that you have a UTI? Would be the most probable, no?
