[|Human|] I have had consistent left flank pain. I am currently on cipro 500mg two times a day for kidney infection. I am on second week of four week dose. This has been a persistent infection which is now gone according to my last culture, but the pain is not gone. It is just below my ribs in my back on the left side and at times comes around to the side and front. It seems worse after I eat or drink and mornings and evenings. Help
[|AI|]  Dear patient As per your description pain is located in left renal angle and most common reason is kidney pathology and kidney stone. Since you are having renal infection this diagnosis is highly likely. Infection in kidney might heal but damage to renal parenchymal persists and this is responsible for pain. You need to consult expert nephrologist nearby your area and get yourself examined. Investigation required are 1. Ultrasound of kidney ureter and bladder 2. Intravenous paleography 3. Ct scan abdomen plain SOS contrast. All the best.
