Can Kidney Stone Cause Sharp Left-sided Abdominal Pain?
I have a sharp stabbing pain around left side kidney area when I cough, or try to use the muscle around that area. There is pain even sitting still. My urinary function is normal, so I don t think it s a stone? Can someone enlighten me how to treat this?

Hello,
It doesn't seem to be urinary tract infection or kidney infection. It seems to be muscular strain pain. For that, you can take analgesic like brufen for five days. A hot compress can be applied over that area. If no improvement than ultrasonography should be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
