Hello dear I understand your concern Your symptoms could be due to constipation, renal stone. I would suggest to consult USG scan to rule out kidney stone. Urine test will not helpful to rule out kidney stone. Specific treatment depend on cause. Following advice will help you for constipation: Glycerine enema for immediate relief Syrup Lactulose: can be taken up to 30 ml twice a day Tab bisacodyl at bedtime can useful Bulking agents like isabgol husk For pain you took meftal spas Take rest Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
