Hi
Thanks for yyour query.
See the pain described by you has quite a few differential diagnoses like pancreatitis, renal stone, chronic appendicitis and pain originating from pelvic organs. I think you need to have urine culture and sensitivity testing because it may be just a chronic cystitis. Again I will suggest you to go for a contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scan of the abdomen because it will delineate the pathology clearly if present. You should consult an urologist. Because cystoscopic evaluation is needed if renal or bladder pathology is suspeted or you can go for intravenous pyelogram after consultation with your urologist. But first of all you should go for CECT abdomen and rest of the investigations should be decided by CECT finding.
Thank you.
