<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.I have had a mild pain in my kidney for maybe a year on and off. It aches in the cold weather and the is only in one kidney on the right side of my body. I spoke to my mother and she mentioned a kidney infection but ive had the mild pain for a long time now? It isnt concerning but lately its been playing on my mind! If you could get back to me that would be great.  <response>: Good Day, and thank you for being with Chat Doctor ! I would recommend an urinalysis and a Pub ultrasound. If these tests come out negative then a disease or infection in the kidney is unlikely. I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: .comdoctors Chat Doctor. Best wishes.
