Brief Answer:
calculus or gravels in urinary system with urinary infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor services.
I have read your query and here is my advise.

* As per my surgical experience, the mentioned pain over different locations of abdomen
with frequency of urination without quantity indicate possible calculus or gravels in the
urinary system.

* The fever is due to underlying urinary tract infection.

* Recommendations at present

- Drink more liquids in sessions.
- Antacid as ranitidine ( 150 mg ) helps relieve gastric upset.
- Tylenol works best for pain control, if persists after that, have to get prescription of
dicyclomine for better spasm relief.
- Avoid spices and dairy fat intake at present.
- Take an appointment with your family physician as the condition requires evaluation
with urine microscopy and ultrasound of the abdomen & pelvis for the final diagnosis
and further management accordingly.

Wish you great health.
Do feel free to discuss further regarding the same.
