Could you tell me where exactly the pain is (e.g., is it above your belly button on your right, bellow the belly button to the left)?

Are you taking any medications?

How long have you been feeling the pain?

Do you have any changes in your urine output or bowel movements?

Do you have a fever?

Thanks for the information.

You definitely need to see your doctor. Most likely he/she will refer you to a specalist for further studies.

It sounds like your problems are more digestive related than kidney related, however it could be kidney stones as you suspect. Because you seem to have this problem fairly often, it is less likely. Instead, I have a feeling you are suffering from IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) or a similar digestive problem.

Unfortunately you may need to undergo a few tests to figure out what exactly the problem is. However, given the severity of the pain, it is very important you are seen as soon as possible.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Sincerely,
Emily
