hi
i have understood your concern

probabilities of his pain are
1.hydroureteronephrois secondary to pyelonephritis or stones
2.just muscular pain in that kidney region

as he is a diabetic , more chances for urinary tract infection and kidney infections

i can suggest you to get done
1.urine routione and culture
2.USG abdomen and KUB.
3. renal function tests
4. serum electrolytes

treatment
1. tab . ultracet twice daily for 5 days
or
2. inj.paracetamol 1 gm infusion over 30 mins .

avoid NSAID group of analgesics to prevent kidney damage.

hope this helps you
thanks.
