If you're experiencing kidney pain, it's important to seek treatment right away to reduce your risk of developing long-lasting kidney damage ... Show more
Quick Glance: Causes and Treatment of Kidney Pain
  • Treatment for kidney pain varies depending on the underlying cause. For example, antibiotics may be prescribed for kidney pain due to an infection, while treatment for removal may be necessary if kidney pain is due to stones.

  • Various tools are available to determine the cause, including urinalysis and imaging tests such as ultrasound or a CT scan.

  • If kidney pain persists, seeking medical help is advised. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, apply heat, and consider taking pain relievers to alleviate discomfort.

  • In general, water is the most beneficial for the kidneys. Drinks high in sugar can contribute to diabetes, while those with excessive salt or caffeine can lead to dehydration, potentially causing kidney damage over time.
