I had severe pain in my left side back area last week. Lasted approx 5 hrs. My husband thought I had a kidney stone. I drank over a gallan of water and finally the pain subsided. MOnday I called my dr and she decided to have me get a CT.  Today the diagnosisi so far is 1 swelled lymph node, she is order CT of abdomen, pelvis and some blood work. Other that that 1 evening of pain. I feel fine. However now I am so scared.  Have you heard of a swelled lymph node from a passed kidney stone?
Hello dear, Such a pain usually results from a UTI or renal/ureteric calculi. But these conditions usually will not cause lymph node swelling.a urine examination and USG usually clinch the diagnosis. The significance of your lymph node enlargement and its association with your pain is to be determined with detailed clinical and radiological assessment. Your doctor will guide you. Hope my answer will be helpful. Thank you.
