Hello. I just had a renal biopsy last Friday, I m unsure if it is related. But on the left side of my abdomen I have been having pain. It started Tuesday and has been increasing in severity. When I take a deep breath, walk, or sneeze the pain is stronger. I m also having back pain but it s not as severe.Sometimes I also feel pressure in the pelvic area.
Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidated history. With the history of a renal biopsy, the cause is obvious. The hematoma or an infection or a lemonade in the retro-peritoneal space can cause all the problems you have of pain, which is increasing in severity, and increases on deep breathing, walking and sneezing along with back pain. The pressure in the pelvic area suggests that the hematoma might have spread to the pelvic area too. I would advise you to report back to the center / Doctor who performed the renal biopsy, get an ultrasonography or a CT scan of the abdomen and get the proper diagnosis. The treatment will be according to the findings, till then have complete bed rest, take plenty of oral fluids,
