Does it sound like kidney problem?

Hello,

For a couple of days now I am experiencing some strange pain on the right side of my lower back.
The pain is relatively sharp and relatively intense. Like a needle or stabbing and lasts less than a second, it seems. The pattern repeats a 3 or 4 times during the day.

- I haven't noticed any blood in my urine
- Urination has been normal.
- I have no other symptoms..

I would appreciate any inputs.

Thank you.

its either kidney stones or gallbladder ..galllbladder stones cause pain that radiates from the front to the back..and a bit higher than you describe but everyones anatomy is different...mention gallbladder cause you say no difficulty or pain voiding.

Never look past maybe having kidney stones believe me I am a professional in making stones, you might want to get a x-ray to see if that is what it is.
