Hello
Thanks for query .
Your mother has donated her kidney 5 years back and now getting pain in abdomen fever etc .
In view of she having only one renal unit(Kidney) she needs to be investigated to rule out an infection(UTI) or stone formation .
Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical assessment and get following basic test done to confirm the diagnosis .
1) Urine Culture
2) Haemogram
3) Renal function tests
4) Ultrasound Scanning of abdomen and pelvis .
In the mean while give her antibiotics like Coprofloxacin along with H2 receptor antagonist Pantaprazole twice daily .
Ensure she drinks more water to keep her well hydrated .
Further treatment will depend upon results of these tests and final diagnosis Dr.Patil..
