sore area near right kidney

I’ve recently had a UTI and whilst seeing gp about this I thought I would mention to the gp something that was concerning me but that I hadn’t approached the gp about. It is on the flank near my right kidney. This area doesn’t ache but rather it is very tender and sore when touched - sore enough to be of concern. Has anyone had a simple experience?

Thank you

Yes...see your doctor about this. It can be anything - a uti issue, a skeletal/muscular matter, etc. Lots of things show symptoms like that. An knowledgeable doctor will figure it out for you.
