What Causes Pain In Kidney, Blood And White Particles In Urine?
I am 27 yrs old with kidney pain. I have had blood in my urine and kidney infections for 3 months now. I have been on two different antiobotics and I drink 64 ounces of water a day. No caffine. I also have a history of reflux, and kidney stones. I had an IVP and CT done and it shows a stone in my left kidney. I also notice white particles in urine and 2 days ago and today I noticed tiney black specs a little larger than the size of a grain of sand. Been to 2 drs and they want to run more and more tests. My next appt isnt until a month away and I have pain in my kidneys and back.

Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!
I believe you may be passing out some kidney stones (small fragment) thereby causing pain on the flank area and sometimes in the abdomen at the lower quadrants. You may need to do a urinalysis to check for blood and to rule out UTI. A ct STONOGRAM would be the best imaging choice for you since it can detect 90% of stones in the urinary tract. If the stones are small then you may be able to pass it out spontaneously with just fluid hydration (2Liters of water a day).
I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes.
