[|AI|]  HI, Thanks for the query. I* understand your concern.  Yes, any pain including constitutional discomfort in abdomen/ kidney pain can be treated in pregnancy.  I feel constipation can cause all of your discomfort & pain . So have a good management for constipation & side by side get your urine checked for kidney problem & other tests to follow if indicated.  Constipation causes loaded bowels with excess gasses/ stretching & pain in abdomen/ back/ below ribs follows.  You can help your self to combat constipation by-few lifestyle changes.  - Using glycerine suppository & stool softener like creamaffin to start with/ take plane water enema to pass very hard stools.  - Improvement in diet. Take balanced diet along with high fiber diet (salads, fruits, vegetables, eating non-refined food & Istanbul at bedtime)/ avoid fast food.  - Chat Doctor.  - have mild Yoga exercises daily under expert guidance, - Form a regular bowel habit.  - Take over the counter digestive enzymes after food.  Consult your doctor.  * consult your treating gynecologist for remaining complaints . If any.  Thanks.
