Hello,
It is unlikely due to kidney problem.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
An MRI scan might be required for further assessment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
