Recurring UTI. CT Scan Showed Kidney Stone, Thickening Of Ileum. Pain In Lower Abdomen, Crohns On Remission. Suggest

I had a ct scan for re-current UTI infections, They found a kidney stone that was not bothering anything but said I have thickening of the ileum and ordered an x-ray at the hospital. I have lower abdomen pain that keeps me awake if I lay too long on that side. My crohns have been in remission and I did not have pain in that area when diagnosed.

Hi, you have lower abdominal pain, if you lie down on that side, had recurant U.T.I. got a kidney stone and you didn't mention its position. It is possible that the stone can cause pain when lying on that side. It can cause the recuring U.T.I. due to friction. So i advise you to consult a urologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have a culture and sensitivity of the urine for confirmation of the organism and treatment choice of the U.T.I.
Thank you.
