Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have pain in lower back and increased frequency of urination and hematuria.

This is most likely to be due to presence of stone in either kidney or ureter .

You need to consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine
2) Ultrasound scanning of the abdomen to rule out presence of urinary stone.

In the mean while you can take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefexine along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily and urine alkaliser.
