A member asked:

I hv bad pain lt side flank i hv ibs hd norm bm but pain is stil there more then 2 hrs, tk dicyclomine no help also hv medulary sponge kidneys, advice?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: In medullary sponge kidney disease, there can be stone formation sometimes which could be one reason why you have pain in the flank. If that is the case then drinking more fluids and using potassium citrate will help. Could be something else too.
