What Is The Treatment For Paining Right Plank With No Fever, Swelling, Normal Urination? Aleve Helps

I have had right flank pain for at least three weeks. It keeps me awake at night. Aleve settles the pain for a couple of hours. I find it hard to reposition myself in bed. I have no fever, and no swelling in the extremities. Urination is regular, urine is straw colored.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The reason for the pain in the right flanks might be due to the gastric irritation, kidney infection, stone in the kidney, ureter, hepatitis, gallbladder infection, or stones, colitis, appendicitis.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have gastroscopy, ultrasound, for confirmation.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.

General & Family Physician Dr. Bihle Nestor Mbinkar's  Response
Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare Magic.
With this presentation, I think it is necessary to rule out any possibility of a kidney stone. A kidney cyst can also give you these symptoms. For your problem to be well managed, you need a thorough clinical assessment and maybe some tests like urinalysis, an ultrasound, X-ray or CT scan. In my opinion, I would suggest you see an Emergency room doctor or nephrologist/urologist for proper assessment and management.

I hope that answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. We will be delighted to answer more questions from you.
I wish you good health
