[|Human|] I have the flu and notice some stabbing pains near left kidney . I have type a flu, slight fever..taking tylenol, dry cough..other typical aches n pains. The stabbing pain comes cpl times every two or three hours..it is not excruciating but the few secs it lasts I def feel it. Could this be related to flu? Never had it before but have had lower back pain upon standing. I m female..50 in good health..5 5 110 lbs
[|AI|]  Hi madam, thanks for approaching us at Chat Doctor. Does the pain come on taking a deep breath at all? If so this is a Pleuritic lower chest pain, and you may be having a chest infection. If not, it might well be coming from the kidneys. Either ways you need to see your local physician who can examine you and initiate tests (mainly CXR, Urine routine and culture if necessary) and do the necessary. Don't waste time. Hope this helps.
