Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, I would advise that an Ultrasound of KUB region should be done to view your kidney and bladder. Kidney disease can cause pain in the region you have mentioned.
A clinical evaluation by a Nephrologist/Urologist will help in planning your further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks. Regards.
