Default baseball and my kidney

Everytime I swing my baseball bat full force, after a few contact swings, my left kidney ( I bat left) gets some kind of pain as if it stretches like I pulled it. This pain kind of feels like a static shock in my kidney. Does anyone know what this is? I think it might be a kidney stone but I wouldnt know since this has never happened before. I am 16 if that helps.

I'd strongly suggest that you have your doctor check it out.

From what I've heard about kidney stones, they can cause extreme pain when they're passed. Sorry, I'm not sure if they cause trouble after they're formed but before they're passed.

Best of luck with your help and your batting average.

Definitely have the doctor look at it, especially since we're heading into the spring and this will be the time you're really tempted to take a few rips. By the way, I'm curious if you get the same pain if you switch hit from the right side? Go Jays!
