[|Human|] 6 days ago I hurt myself with a sharp object about where my left kidney is. A large bruise developed and it started to settle down about three days ago. Today it is very tender and I have ben urinating frequently all day. It is also sore when I cough and move suddenly. Do you think this has anything to do with my kidney?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. In the left upper abdomen, there is the spleen and left kidney. If the pain and hurting in worsening over the next 24 hours then it is suggested that you get an ultrasound scan of your abdomen done. Please inform the person doing the scan that your problem is in the left upper abdomen following injury with a sharp object. The spleen is an organ which helps in immunity building and is a storehouse of white blood cells and has a rich blood supply. Splenic injuries are common due to impact oven left upper abdomen. Diagnosis a spleen traumatic injury is very important should you have pain of the region. The left kidney will also be scanned for injury. If you are not having any blood in urine then most likely your left kidney is safe.
