This is mainly cause to kidney stones. During the morning your ureters are so constricted that can cause morning pain. It is important for you to visit you doctor, urologist, to do some tests and radiological studies with a complete checkup of your kidneys. Thank you.
Is it back pain or kidney pain? Go see your primary doctor.
Probably muscle pain.
