Kidney pain (flank pain) treatment depends on the underlying cause of the pain. Infections and kidney stones that cause pain are often treated with ibuprofen, ketorolac (Toradol), acetaminophen (Tylenol and others), or occasionally with small amounts of morphine (kidney stones).
Severe goiter or nodule problem: Seek immediate attention at a hospital's emergency department if you have these signs and symptoms associated with thyroid problems. Shortness of breath especially with stridor (a whistling sound in your neck when you breathe)
Causes of a goiter include an imbalance in the thyroid gland, and goiter symptoms generally occur in a gland that is overactive, producing too many hormones (hyperthyroidism), or that is underactive, producing too little hormones (hypothyroidism).
