What Causes Pain In Flank,back And Waist?

I have a pain at my waist and back.. Doctor tested urine which shows slight traces of blood, protein and white blood cells. Culture test done of urine. Normal. Have had several antibiotics but still have flank pain. Referred to hospital for ultrasound of kidneys..result normal. Referred to hospital for cystoscopy consultant told me there and then results normal, he referred me for a c.t scan which I had 18th August still no word back fro hospital but I contacted my doctor who said that no kidney stone was detected. But I should wait on word from hospital to see if they plan further investigation. I am due to go and get my vaginal pessary removed and refitted on 10 th October. I have had this flank pain since May 7th previous to that I got my pessary refitted and the nurse took a smear and she contacted me to say I had thrush and an infection and treated me with antibiotics and a thrush treatment. This all seems to have stemmed from my last pessary being fitted

Hi there.

You could be having Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and thrush may be a part of it. Kindly take the prescribed antibiotics from your Doctor. Keep the pelvic and perineal area clean. Avoid sexual intercourse till it clears. Drink 2 litres of water daily. Take Syrup Alkaline citrate syrup 3 teaspoonfuls 3 times a day if you have burning sensation on passing urine. Get a Gynaecology checkup regularly for proper treatment.

Wishing you speedy recovery.
