Question 1

which ckd medicines may cause renal neuropathy like burning sensation in feet?

Accepted Answer

CKD: Chronic kidney disease itself can cause neuropathy. What medications are you taking? The dose of medications excreted by the kidney should be adjusted according to your estimated glomerular filtration rate. It would be prudent to discuss it with your doctor.
Wish you good health!

Question 2

female burning urine. no pain in flank. just became symptomatic. anything other than cipro-to relieve infection. biggest concern is renal problems.?

Accepted Answer

Yes. : There are many antibiotics for urinary tract infections. See your physician to get a urine test and culture to first confirm the infection. More important than the specific drug is that it is tested with the infecting bacteria to ensure that the medication will work. You are correct to be concerned that an untreated UTI could lead to kidney infection.

Question 3

Question 4

i am feeling burning pain during urination. previously sufferer of renal calculi but now usg is ok.is it a uti.i have given urine sample for culture.?

Accepted Answer

Possibly UTI: If you've had kidney stones before, it's possible that's what's going on, but pain or blood during urination and one-sided low back pain would be more indicative. Burning during urination, increased frequency or an urge to urinate are more likely symptoms of a urinary tract infection. See your primary care doctor for a urinalysis and possible urinary culture, if needed.

Question 7

what is renal reserve?

Accepted Answer

Physiology: This is one more way to see how good a person's kidney function is, to decide for example whether they can be a donor. A person may be given a radioisotope and their ability to clear it measured before and after they take a protein meal. It's a test of the ability of the kidney to increase its filtration rate (as when stimulated by a protein load.) ask a nephrologist how useful it is.

Question 8

how serious is renal failure?

Accepted Answer

Depends on severity: In short, renal failure is not good.  A general measure of the degree of renal failure is estimated glomerular filtration rate, usually calculated from serum creatinine levels.  An egfr value above 90 is normal, above 60 is not too bad, below 60 has serious implications for health and life span.  If you have any concern about renal failure, see your doctor.

Question 9

burning sensation internally?

Accepted Answer

Could be reflux: "burning sensation" in the chest may be related to reflux.  Go see your doctor.  A trial of ppi's and carafate (sucralfate) may help determine the cause and may need an egd scope.  I have also seen "strictures" do this....The esophagus folding onto itself and you need a dilation by a GI doc.  Your family doc could order a upper GI series to help him figure out the problem.

Question 10

burning in back when i cough?

Accepted Answer

Back pain: When you cough you increase pressure in your chest and abdomen.  You also forcefully flex the spine.  Back pain when coughing can be from irritation to paraspinal muscles when coughing, or it could be from a disc being pushed on during the force of the cough.  A few episodes of this is probably not a concern , but if this persists or worsens i would get it checked.
