What Could Be The Reason For Experiencing Sharp Pains In My Lower Right Side And Stinging While Urinating?
I am currently experiencing sharp pains in my lower right side when standing after sitting down, to include extreme stinging while urinating. I am a male, 59 years of age and have experienced kidney stones in the past. Is this a probability or could there be another issue? I recently had a general physical and the MD couldn't find any abnormalities.

Welcome to HCM.
You have to go for certain investigations like cbc,urine and USG abdomen to confirm the diagnosis.
There might be possibility of passage of small stone in the urinary tract.
Drink more water and other liquid.
Take proper antibiotic like ofloxacin,cefixime to subside the urinary tract infection.
Also go for stone analysis so you can plan your diet accordingly and prevent recurrence.
Keep in touch with your doctor.
