Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Doctor, I have lately been experiencing some severe pains from my right flank for years and despite so many visits to the doctors here in Nigeria no proper diagnosis has been made as to what is wrong or what is causing the pain. In a desperate attempt to find out what is going on, I undertook the blood test reported in the PDFs attached to this message. I will appreciate if a doctor could please help me interpret the test and let me know what they mean. Thanks very much in anticipation to your reply. Regards, Ofonmbuk Udosen...
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It can be a kidney related pain probably be some stones in your urinary tract. You can go for an ultrasound scan to look for any stones or calculi in your urinary tract. As of now you can take analgesics like paracetamol or diclofenac for pain relief. If stones are detected in the scan you can consult a urologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
