Hi, I am a 26 year old female. I am active, exercising 3 to 4 times a week and eat a healthy diet. I was hospitalized in July for 5 days with an infectious colitis I brought back from Mexico. I believe the bacteria was Clostridium Jejunum. I was on metronidazole and cipro in the hospital. I also had pylonephritis about 4 years ago in my right kidney for which I was also hospitalized for 5 days. Since my recent hospitalization in July of 2012 I have had right back/flank pain. The pain started when I was in the hospital and hasn t let up. It is progressively getting worse. I asked my doctor in the hospital how my kidney function was and she said rock solid so I was convinced it would go away. Finally, 3 months later I made an appointment because it wasn t getting any better. The cytology report came back as follows
Hi, I did review your concern. Generally ovarian cysts cause back pain but usually do not cause blood in urine. Hence, I would advise you to go see a urologist. I would recommend not to take ibuprofen, since long term ibuprofen can itself damage your kidneys and cause analgesic nephropathy. If you have fever, night sweats or other problems it could be infection. Another cause could be something in the kidney causing hematuria. So consult a urologist and see how it goes from there. Better be earlier than late in cases of kidney.I hope this help swish you a super healthy life ahead.
