Perinephric Abscess
When pain appears on one side of the lower back along with fever, one possibility to consider is a perinephric abscess: a collection of pus in the tissue surrounding the kidney, generally as a result of an infection.
When to seek care? Lower back or flank pain that persists, fever, chills, or a general feeling of illness are signs that justify getting evaluated without delay.
Which specialist treats it? The nephrologist and the urologist study conditions of the kidney and urinary tract; in children, the pediatric nephrologist takes part in the evaluation.
Why not put it off? Because it is an infection that affects a delicate area, its management requires an individual professional evaluation. Faced with these symptoms, the sensible thing is to consult a specialist soon.
