A member asked:

Months of left side/flank pain & 2 neg cts. then sudden blood in urine/clots, & bladder spasms. diangosis pyelonephritis. can this explain pain for months?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Partially: Very possible that a low grade infection caused the initial symptoms, then became full blown pyelonephritis , which requires initial IV antibiotics and long term treatment (at lest 3-4 weeks). Then need urologic evaluation to look for anatomic abnormalities for stones, masses, etc. That may be contributing.
