What is community-acquired pneumonia and will it cause your kidneys to hurt
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common type of bugs: Community aquired pneumonia means just that, "normal" types of organisms that cause pnuemonia, as apposed to hospital aquired pneunomia which is often caused by antibiotic resistant bacteria. Pneumonia is an infection in your lungs. This type of infection should not directly cause any pain in your kidneys although infections cause inflammation and inflammation can cause pain. Maybe you have uti?
