Hi, I have a pain in my kidney (both sides) and the pain spreads like in front of the kidney and it moves to backside of the body. When the pain stops at in front of the kidney it starts at either the corner part or the back part of the body and it spreads to thigh. This happens gradually after one month. For suppose I have pain now it will be alright after a week and starts again after a month. I have a severe gastric for which I have been taking a treatment. Can this be a kidney stone, uti or any other sickness per my symptoms. Thanks!
