I'm experiencing some pain in the area below my waist, especially when I wear a tight belt. The pain isn't constantit's more of a dull ache that comes and goes and seems to affect the whole front area. I'm a bit worried and curious about what might be causing this. Could this be something serious, or is it just from the belt being too tight?

Is it normal to have no bacteria present if there's a history of urine infections? I've had kidney stones last year and have had urine infections 2 or 3 times. Should I be worried or is this within the normal range?

Based on your history of recurrent urine infections and a kidney stone last year, it is important to monitor your urine parameters closely. A normal urine test should not show any bacteria present. To prevent further infections, you can consider taking cranberry supplements or D-mannose powder to help maintain urinary tract health. Additionally, you can ask your doctor about prescribing you with a low-dose antibiotic such as Nitrofurantoin to take after intercourse or as a prophylactic treatment. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your kidney health and prevent future complications.

I've got a 7.5mm stone causing wave-like pain in my lower back and abdomen how can I pass it naturally or do I need surgery? Could it damage my kidneys or other organs if it stays too long?

A 7.5mm kidney stone causing wave-like pain in your lower back and abdomen is likely to require medical intervention, such as surgery, or procedures like lithotripsy to break it down, as it's less likely to pass naturally. If the stone remains lodged in the ureter, it can cause severe pain, increase the risk of infection or kidney damage, and potentially impact other organs over time.
