Hi
Thanks for your query.
Fever with pain in loins could point to an infection of the kidneys. However it is difficult to determine the exact cause without a clinical examination.
I would recommend a CBC, urinalysis and an Ultrasound of the abdomen. Please see a physician with these test results ASAP.
Hope this helps
Good luck
