A member asked:

I have a burning sensation around waist, feeling more on the sides of my waist. does this have to do something with my kidneys?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Shin Beh answered

Unusual: It may be but it's unusual for kidney disorders to cause bilateral burning pain. I would recommend seeing your doctor about it. More likely diagnoses include nerve problems, or less likely, a spinal cord problem.
