What Causes Right Abdominal Pain After Kidney Infection Recovery?
I had a kidney infection 3 months ago and treated with cipro. They also did an ultrasound to look for crystals and didn t find any. I have some dull pain in my right side and am paranoid of another kidney infection is it possible I have another one even though the symptoms are nothing like before?

Hi,
It is always worthwhile to repeat a urine culture ,as there is always a possibiliy of reinfection/recurrence ,if culture test is negative you can be reassured.Its very important that you void urine before going to bed and donot have constipation as both these can predispose to urine infection.
