Brief Answer:
renal calculus

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

The fact that you just have pain and it is not associated with fever and there is blood in urine implies that the pain is secondary to a renal stone rather than an infection

Here is what you should do

1. Do not take uti pill, it might be of any help
2. tab acetaminophen three times a day is a good drug for the pain. A better drug would be tramadol but that will require a prescription
3. you must get an ultrasound of the abdomen done to see for kidney stone
4. get a urine routine done to see for infection

Please approach a general physician soon

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Ok. It started sat and it's almost Tuesday. It feels like a tight muscle. And I just am not myself.
