Why Is The Sudden Stabbing Pain While Urinating And Had Protein In Urine And Kidney Infection Few Years Ago?

I have random pain in my lower right side, and sometimes when I m about to pass water I ll get sudden stabs of pain but then it will subside and won t hurt for awhile (days or weeks). I ve had protein in my urine before and have had a kidney infection about two years ago. Any suggestions? Should I get it checked out?

Urologist,  's  Response
Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!

I would advise you to have your kidneys and urinary system checked. Pain during or after urination is always a trigger sign that something might be wrong. I would suggest getting a urinalysis and a kidney bladder ultrasound. This two non invasive test are very easy to do and would be able to detect about 90% of urinary system abnormalities.

Protein in the urine is always bad and tells me that there might be ongoing kidney damage happening right now.

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.
