Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, we should rule out Urinary tract infection (UTI), renal stone and lumber spine related pathology as all these can cause similar symptoms.
So consult doctor and get done clinical
1. Urinary microscopic examination to rule UTI
2. Ultrasound examination of kidney, ureter and bladder (KUB) for the diagnosis of renal colick due to stone.
3. X ray of lumber spine to rule out spine related diseases.
Treatment for all these is different. So better to first diagnose the cause and then start appropriate treatment.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
