Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

Can you tell us what kind of tests have been done?

Flank pain (discomfort in your upper abdomen or back and sides) can be many things, Kidney problems among them. It can start below the ribs and above the pelvis. You may have pain on one side or both. We cannot diagnose you, only a doctor can tell you through examination and tests what might be causing your pain.

Below, is a good resource on flank pain if you'd like to read through it. Keep us updated.
