What Causes Pain In The Kidneys?
Hi Dr.,
I've had very sharp pain up the kidneys starting from back to front, and have difficulty breathing, as well had vomiting. I have a little baby 4 months old and today was the second time within one month. this kind of attach comes out of the blue and lasts for around 15 min, and after it calms down it's like it didn't happen a thing, except for the bad taste of the vomiting. I would like to know what might be wrong, and what kind of tests should I get?
Thanks
Ina

Hi Ina and welcome to HCM. As an Urologist, i can understand your anxiety.
How did you conclude,the pain is from the kidney ?
You should see an Urologist,and do the following tests :
1. urine routine and culture.
2. blood routine,creatinine,uric acid,RBS,LFT and platelets.
3. ultrasound scan-KUB or a MRI scan-KUB.
According to the reports, an expert opinion can be given.
