Hello,
Kidney pain is commonly caused by UTI, kidney stones, Polycystic kidney diseases. Get physically examined & get CBC, Urinalysis, USG, Imaging tests be done to detect the cause of pain.
Vertigo is caused by problem in balance with the inner ear. Get examined, get audiometry test done. Avoid driving while you have vertigo for a couple of days. Meclizine Hydrochloride is effective for treating vertigo.
Continue taking the other medications you have been prescribed. You can take painkillers like Acetaminophen(Tylenol) to get relieved from kidney pain.
Get evaluated, get treated at the earliest. Your treatment will depend upon the severity of the disease detected.
