Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain on both the sides with a normal ultrasound scan could be due to a myofascial syndrome.
You can take mild pain killers like ibuprofen along with a good muscle relaxant for symptomatic relief after consulting your physician. Since the pain is persistent, it is less likely to be related to a renal infection.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
