What Causes Pain In The Hips While Suffering From Kidney Stones?

I recently had a CT scan and found out I have multiple non obstructive kidney stones in my right kidney. My back and hip has been hurting but my doctor told me to just push fluids. I have experience this pain for almost 5 months now and really want my back to stop hurting. What are your thoughts.

Hi,

The pain from kidney problem or stones can radiate to back side, groin area, testicles and to thigh region. So your pain is from kidney stones.

As per your report, that doctor said to take liquids indicates that perhaps stones are small and can pass by urine. The only cure for this problem to address the problem of stones. As soon as stones are cleared you will feel free from pain. I don't know the size of stones and therefore can say whether you need other procedures like lithotripsy.

It would be better if you can submit tests so that it can be properly assessed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
