A member asked:

Can a kidney infection cause intermittent pain in side/flank over several weeks pain getting more constant and stronger but urine clear on dipstick. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More testing : if the dip stick if negative then there is a low potential for a kidney infection although a urine culture sent to the lab is more accurate. Kidney stones can cause this type of pain in absence of an infection an X ray or a CT (more accurate) is used to diagnose stones
