Question: I am a 24 yr old female. I just got over a UTI and I have been have having throbbing pain in my right kidney since July 16th. I had a bilateral x ray done on my kidneys and it showed I have a 3mm stone in my left kidney, my left kidney does not bother me at all though. I have a small bruise on my back over my right kidney area as well but I have never hit my back on anything at all. The pain in my kidney is constant and goes from a 7-9 all the time. What could be the cause of the pain and bruising.
