Bro, most of us on this board are not physicians! Based on what you have told us, we would not be doing you any favor by plying doctor. You should consult your physician. Any pain that you are unsure of the source or cause can be serious. Kidney pain is a bitch but passing stones will knock you out!! If this is the case get them b4 they get you.

I used to get kidney pain a lot when i was in my twenties... low back pain on right or left side..painful, but not bad enough to stay home from work for...i have only been "on" for a few months so roids were not the cause, solution. DRINK AT LEAST A GALLON OF WATER A DAY. if that don't work, then go party like hell, cause the roids are killing you andyou'll be dead soon... just kidding. if the water is not helping, go see the doc..

As a registered nurse and a paramedic, my advice is to seek professional medical care, especially if you develop pains in your right ( or left ) lower abdominal quadrant. Water is good, but if it is true kidney pain, you might want to start drinking lots of cranberry juice. Should you have kidney stones and you pass one during urination, the pain is described by many as like giving birth. I am not kidding.
