What Causes The Kidney On The Right Side To Hurt?

Ive had a uti since Sunday. Today I went to doctor and got medicine. I took one pill but before I went to doctor and now the area where my kidney is on the right side hurts. It hurts a whole lot more than earlier. Does this mean I have a kidney infection & should go to doctor?

Hi,
Many a times renal stones presents with such symptoms,causing recurrent UTI,

You will have to undergo some investigation like ultrasound abdomen and pelvis,
Urine routine and microscopy,
Get it done and evaluated by your treating doctor,

Hope this information helps.
