Hi, Thanks for writing in to us. Mild pelvictasia is the name for prominent renal pelvis seen on ultrasound scan. This can happen if the urinary bladder is full, if there is a stone in the path of ureter or any kidney infection. The CT scan was probably to look for stones and is normal. If laboratory tests are normal then kidney infection is less likely. One of the possibilities which still holds good for your pain is the passage of a small stone through the urinary tract. This causes significant pain even after the stone passes out. The scans do not show any stone because it was passed out over few hours before doing the scan. The stone can injure the lining of the ureter leading to pain. Please Chat Doctor.  Please do not worry.
