# possibilities: An aching in what sounds like your flank area brings to mind either muscular pain or a renal stone. I suggest seeing generalist first for a thorough hx and px, and simple tests such as urinalysis and blood testing. Since it is only three days, may try for few days heating pad to area and drinking copious amounts of fluid. If not gone in a week, definitely check it out.

Renal: At least start by doing a urine test for UTI and an ultrasound of your kidneys.
