See a doctor: Congratulations on switching from soda to water- that will have many benefits! kidney pain is usually caused by either kidney stones or a kidney infection, though often pain in the kidney area is not from the kidneys at all but from the muscles in the area of the kidneys (this is likely if the pain is affected by motion or position). Please see a doctor for evaluation & treatment.

Question 2

i have kidney pain when i drink coffee. i'll stop drinking it but do you think it will give me kidney stones, and is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Unclear.: "Kidney pain" is rare and usually only accompanies significant illness, like infection or stones. It is not clear that your coffee is causing pain in your kidneys, and coffee is not well related to flank pain in general. Kidney stones have both genetic and dietary predispositions; they are rare in people your age. Please see a doctor to determine the true cause of your flank pain and discuss.

Question 4

i recently completed a course of augmentin and amoxicillan (at the same time) for sinusitis, my doctor then prescribed a further course of ciploxx due to further symptoms. however, i now have slight kidney pain, should i stop this course?

Accepted Answer

Diagnosis needed: You don't specify what your current symptoms are. How do you know that your pain is from a kidney pain? If it is, it could be from a stone or kidney infection. If you still have sinusitis after all those antibiotics, I recommend having a ct scan of the sinuses to assess their status. You also may need to have a urinalysis,microscopic examination and culture. Don't stop ciprofloxacin without yourMD
