Thanks in advance.
[|AI|]  Hello. Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. Locallised pain in the right lower back can be from kidney, but is not necessarily so. The causes can range from simply musculoskeletal to visceral. You need to tell us in detail, the character of pain. Priminarily she can consult any experienced nephrologist, who will rule in or rule out kidney problems. The investigations required by her will be:1. USG -PUB region2. Complete blood picture3. If required - Abdominal CT4. Lastly MRI-spine if no visceral cause is decided. Take care.
