A member asked:

My urine has been hot and not a lot came out i drink water all day about 2l a day went into metobiolic asidosis once is it a sign of bad kidneys?

Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Hot urine: Perhaps you're describing a urinary tract infection. Regardless, you need to see your Family Doc to investigate why there's more going in then coming out! Especially if you've already gone into metabolic acidosis in past. So don't delay!
