What Causes Recurrent Left-sided Abdominal Pain While Having A Kidney Stone?

I had left-sided pain last week. I thought it was a kidney stone. (I ve had them many times before). have stage 3 kidney disease. The doctor at Urgent Care felt a mass on my left side and had me go to ER. I had a CT Scan and and a stomach ultrasound and vaginal ultrasound. They found a stone in my right kidney. The ER Doctor said she felt a mass on my left side, too. But there were no problems with my tests. The pain subsided for 2 days and now it s back. Any idea what it could be?

Hi,

Your pain is due to stone in the kidney. There is no mass lesion in ultrasound so don't worry about it.

Treatment of kidney stones depends on size and location. For immediate relief, you can take drugs like diclofenac sodium. But it gives just pain relief. For permanent cure consult your doctor and plan treatment according to size.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
