Hi, welcome to HCM.
Looking to your history, it seems that you have complicated urinary tract infection.
Do basic urine report with culture, S.creatinine, CBC, and sonography.
It will decide associated kidney stone that can produce this type of pain.
Take antibiotic according to culture report.
Maintain adequate hydration.
I think this would be helpful to you.
You can get back to me with above reports or you can consult nearby nephrologist.
Best wishes. tc.
