Suggest Treatment For Pain In Flank And Groin Region

I had my right kidney remover 3 years ago because of renal cell carcinoma. Over the last 3 weeks I have been having a terrible pain in my left side flank and a dull ache under the bottom of my ribs on the right side of my body. Today I have been getting a pain in the groin at the top of my right leg. I feel like I'm falling apart!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Get an ultrasound done to look for any stones or calculi in left kidney. The recurrence of renal cancer is rare on the opposite kidney. As of now you can take analgesics like Cyclopam for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
