Pain in kidney area.
I am experiencing very dull pain in my kidney area..very light but noticeable. I was experiencing burning sensation while urinating a few days back but now it is fine. A few months back, I had urine infection and it got resolved. Could it be that I got the infection again? Will this damage kidneys? What tests are needed to know about the functioning of kidneys?
