Hello,welcome to the HCM.
BRIEF..it could be infection or stone
DETAIL..Since from your history the pain could be more likely becaus of infection , stone in the kidney or just because of gas..
Even if you feel some swelling during coughing then it could be because of hernia.
Until you get checked by doctor , you may have pain killer tablet (buscopan)at home and have light food like soft rice and plenty of water.
For ruling out the cause you should get ultrasound abdomen ang x-ray KUB done and discuss further.
Hopefully my answer will be helpfull.
Regards,Dr.Maheshwari
