JAYCUE

Can a C6 quad feel pain in their lower back? This pain started recently. Some days it seems worse than others. I searched old threads and couldn't find a definite answer. Here's the possibilities I came across.
1. Posture/seating selection. I originally thought it was from the way I've been sitting, along with the Jay2 back on my chair. In a recent post many complained about the Jay backs. I'm planning on getting a new chair/back so posture will no longer be a problem. However, sometimes when I get in bed the pain is still there in the morning.
2. Kidneys. I then saw in the old posts people having back pain associated with the kidneys. This has me concerned. My pain is in this area, but my urine looks normal, no traces of blood or anything like that.
3. Neuropathic pain. I have neuropathic pain in my lower legs and feet. The pain in my back doesn't feel the same as that.
So what's the best way to approach this? Am I really feeling this or is it all in my head? Is it my kidneys? Should I schedule an appt. with my uro. and wait to get my kidneys checked or head to the ER right away?
