Suggest Treatment For Severe And Unbearable Pain In Right Side
I have had severe right side pains that have been going off and on since yesterday, but tonight they have been pretty unbareable. I have taken Ibuprofen at 9:30 and again just now. I have no swelling and no fever, just pain...I am guessing in and around the 11th and 12th rib. Pain seems to be mainly in the back. I feel better when I stand up, however around 12:00 this morning I took a warm bath and followed up with a warm shower and pain was gone completely! I was able to sleep till now where pain is back, same place and is a dull stabbing pain. Looking at symptoms could this pain be kidney stones?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms can be related to kidney stone.
I suggest to do an abdominal ultrasound for further evaluation.
Meanwhile,I suggest using a spasmolytic such as Buscopan to relieve the pain.
Warm compresses can also be helpful.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
