Drink more Water : Pain that truly comes from the kidney is usually unilateral and always represents a serious problem. Urinary frequency is a common symptom of urinary tract infection. Put those two together and you have pyelonephritis, which is a kidney infection. This is a true emergency and you should see a doctor within 24 hours or, if you have fever, vomiting or lightheadedness go to the emergency room now.
