what are these red spots?

[me_just34]

It is about 2 months that I have pain at L5S1 region and
also a red patch at this region as you will see in the attached figures. The pain in L5S1 region is local, it does not radiate to legs.
When I bend forward or sit down it increases. When I bend backward no problem. The red patch does not itch.



I have frequent urination and burning before/after urination and pelvic pains sometimes. I do not know if the two problems
are related.

Currently, i focused on my back-pain problem at L5S1 region. I am waiting for an MRI (which will be one month later).
I have some questions to you as an expert in the field, if you do not mind and have time:

Q1-what is the red patch at L5S1 region? What can be the cause?
Q2-what could be the source of pain at L5S1 region?
Q3- what do you suggest for me?

Sorry, but I am not able to make out what the red patches area, you should speak to your doctor about this.

I will address your  "frequent urination and burning before/after urination and pelvic pains sometimes".

These symptoms are typical of a urinary tract infection.  The other reason for pelvic pains associated with urinary problems could be kidney stones.
This could also be causing your low back problem.

If you are still having these symptoms, do NOT wait for your MRI scan, but make an urgent appointment to see your doctor to get your urine checked and a blood test done to check your liver and kidney function.  Whilst having the blood tests done, it would also be a good idea to get your prostate checked too.

In the meantime, even though it is uncomfortable to pee, you must drink plenty of fluids.  2 litres of water a day is usually recommended, but more if you sweat a lot.  

To help ease the discomfort of burning, as a home remedy you can put in a teaspoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda into a glass of water and drink this.  You can do this 3 times only with 1 hour in between each dose.  This will neutralise the acidic urine that is causing you the burning sensations when you urinate.

Please, make an urgent appointment to see your doctor to get checked out for the urinary problem.  You may need a antibiotic if you have an infection.

Let me know how you get on.
Best wishes.
