Kidney pain when laying down

[alexithymia07]

Hey, I am a 19 year old female, and I have a question about some pain I've been having. Off and on for a long time I have had some dull, aching, but extremely uncomfortable pain in my lower right back and abdomen (but mostly feeling it in the back) that comes when I'm laying down, either on my back or side. The pain increases when I lay on my right side. I don't have any urination symptoms like burning or frequent peeing or blood, which is probably why I haven't seen the doctor about it yet. I was wondering if it's something serious, because the pain can be so bad sometimes. I know it has to be my kidney, and not like a pulled muscle or something, because I can tell the difference, and it's been happening to me for awhile (several months). Thanks for any help.

I too have had kidney stones twice now and may have them again. I was able to pee just fine. Had a lot of pain in my back and even had to have a stent, which I read hurt really bad. I had no problems with my stent.

I am going to try your kidney pain thing, to see if it works for me.

How are you doing now ?         Thanks Stiney

I am having some issues myself. I have a dull ache/ pain in my upper right side of my back where my kidney is that radiates down to my lower back around my hip and into my lower right abdominal area. I also have been having irregular bowl movements and some cramping pending on what i ate the day before. I am very healthy and eat right. No problem urinating, and had numerous of urine cultures taken, all came back negative for infection. I had a full abdominal ultra sound done including on my kidney it all came back fine and normal. Any help. I'm scared and don't know whats next?

I have experienced the same problem. Pain in my lower back area when laying down on my bed. But as soon as I sit up pain goes immediately away.

Here is how I solve that pain. I go to the restroom to do # 1 and # 2 .  :)

Im not kidding or making fun of anybody. It works for me. When I go to bed with an empty stomach I NEVER experience that kinda pain. But when I eat A LOT during the day, especially 3-4 hrs before going to bed, the pain will be there.

So next time try to go #1 and #2 and let me know how it goes.

I disagree! I have had 2 golf ball size stones that were blocked from passing from kidney and EXTREMELY painful for months before I had surgery and i never had urination pain or problems.  Everybody is different

im having pain in my lower back-spine if i lie flat down on my back, but if i lie on my right side the pain from lower back-spine disappears and in a minute or so i start felling pain around my left kidney area, which is getting worse (pain) the more i stay in same position, if i lie on my left side the pain mentioned before disappears and i start start felling pain around my right kidney area, so i have to switch positions all the time till i finally fall asleep , some strange ****, this is going on as long as i remember, havent rly tell any doctor about it , im urinating normal
