Hello Welcome to HCM..
Thank you for posting your query here and I'm definitely going to help you out..

I being a surgeon, we encounter so many such cases and its not a major problem, so suggest you not to worry..
I read your question completely and have understood it well enough..

I will analyze all your points..

1. You say you are suffering from itching and burning sensation in the region of kidney.
Want to know if it's pain!?
If yes pain then in all likelihood you might be having Renal Calculus..

I'm not scaring you, but please get an Renal Usg scan. This will tell us if there is any kind of stone, whether there's hydroneprosis etc..

2. Burning sensation during micturation, again indicates urinary tract infection, Uti.
Well, your doctor might be right but please confirm yourself..
Get these 2 tests done..
A. Urine routine and microscopy
B. Urine culture and sensitivity..

3. Urine culture will grow any organism causing this Uti. If nothing grown then chances are low.
If there is bacteruria, we can always give sensitive antibiotics and clear the disease..

4. So basically, get all these done. Usg scan, urine routine and culture..
3 things..
Later we can manage your problem easily..

Hope this helps you, in case you need any further assistance.. Please let me know.
Take care and God bless you..
I find this answer helpful
