Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query
All the symptoms like pin in renal area,hematuria ,nocturia and frequent urination are due to presence of stone in Kidney and need to get investigated to decide modality of treatment

Consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to establish the diagnosis and status of function of the affected kidney .
1) Urine routine and Urine culture
2) Ultrasound Scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Renal function tests
4) Intra Venous Pyelography or Contrast C.T KUB.

Further treatment will depend upon the results of these tests especially on size ,site and effect of the stone on kidney function.

Till then you can take antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin and Nitrofurantoin with urine alkalizer twice daily .
