Here is an idea: At age 29, you are not at risk for alot of bad things. Kidney pain is not short lived or sharp. I would guess that it is rib related. Try this...look in the mirror. Is one shoulder higher than the other? One leg may be slightly shorter than the other. Usually off by 1/4 inch. Look at yourself in the mirror with hands on hips, and if not equal, add a magazine under the short side see how you feel.
