My daughter keeps having pain in her right side,she thinks she has a bladder infection?

Question

She once had kidney stones.....Wonder what her problem is? She is trying to drink lots of water. But she is in pain.

Answer 1

Then she needs to go to the doctor. It could be another stone or a bladder infection--she needs medical treatment either way.

Answer 2

It's probably not a bladder infection. The usual symptoms of a bladder infection are a feeling like you need to urinate all the time and burning when you urinate. It sounds like she has kidney stones again or it could be a kidney infection or appendicitis. I would not play around with this though. Get her into the doctor or an emergency room as soon as possible. The longer you wait the worse it could be. If it's appendicitis her appendix could explode and cause blood poisoning. A kidney infection that is left go could cause permeate damage to her kidney. Play it safe and get medical help.

Answer 3

How old is your daughter? If she's older than 11 or 12 or so, (in other words, if she's old enough to have begun having periods) she may simply be ovulating. Women ovulate generally about 14 days from the start of their last period and when you ovulate, the ovary swells until an egg is released, which can be very painful in some women. This can last anywhere from a few hours to 3 days.

If her pain persists, however, take her to the doctor to be certain that there is nothing wrong with her appendix or gallbladder. If she does have a bladder infection, she will need antibiotics.

Answer 4

I had a very bad bladder infection recently. She should get an uncomfortable feeling when passing urine, it could be burning or a pressure. It affects people in different ways. There will be a definate constant pressure around the bladder area and she will be in much pain, also she will want to go to the toilet often and even after going will feel as though she needs to go again and again. It could be but I would recomend taking her to the doctor, they do a quick urine test and can tell you straight away if it is a bladder infection. Nothing to worry about, it's pretty commen amoung woman. She will just get antibiotics to take for a few days.

Answer 5

It's ok, don't worry. You need to go to the doctor. All that they will have u do is urinate in a cup. They will check it right away. If u have one they will prescribe antibiotics. I am 48 and have had them many times. You can buy something over the counter called Uristat it will help take away the feeling that ur bladder is full all the time, until u can get to the doctor. Honestly, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Answer 6

Could be her appendix, but she needs to get it checked out with a doc, especially with her history of bladder and kidney problems. Sooner rather than later!

Answer 7

I don't know about the water, but when my son had a pain in his right side it was his appendix. This happened when he was 5 and it almost erupted. If the pain increases (almost like labor) get her to the emergency. Also, if your health insurance has a "call in" for medical questions, please use it. It helped immensely when my other son had pneumonia.

Answer 8

Its probably her appendix.
Do not sit wondering, go to the doctor. It is a simple procedure but if not taken care of can be deadly.
Good luck.

Answer 9

Get her to the dr . Her appendix could be inflamed and she could be compromising her life . If she lives with you take her to the er and have them look at her and make sure she gets taken care of . You health is nothing to play with.

Answer 10

If I were her mom, I'd strongly suggest that she get herself to a doctor ASAP. This is nothing to play around with. If she's still living with you at home, I'd personally take her there.
Good luck.
