What Causes Back Pain With Blood In The Urine?
three days ago I fall and hit my back where the kidney is.. the next day I had a doctors app. I told him what happen and the bruise on by back. he had me test my urine and it came back full of blood. he sent me for a CT scan Friday morning. so I won t have to go through the weekend they sent my results of my test back and the doctor call and told there was nothing urgent and told me he would see me Monday. I am having a lot of pain in by whole back. It even hurts to talk. what do you think is happening?

Hello
Thanks for query .
severe pain in flank with hematuria following trauma strongly suggest injury to kidney .
Though your C.T Scan has not revealed any gross injury (Report yet to be confirmed officially),
In view of persistent pain and hematuria even after three days ,possibility of internal injury to the kidney or rupture of small blood vessel can not be rule out.
Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Intra Venous Pyelography .(I.V.P.)
You need to get admitted in hospital and has to be under observation .with I.V fluids,antibiotics .
