Pain In The Kidney, Reduced Urination, Puffy Face And Swollen Lips. Need Suggestions
Hi, I have been experiencing slight pain/discomfort from the area of my left kidney . In addition, when I consume about 60 oz or more of water, I do not have to urine as frequently as one would expect. I ve also noticed my sweat, when I exercise, is extremely salty. I don t know if the following is related, but I have a swollen lip on the lower right side only, and my face gets puffy if I consume too much salt. I am 5 0 and weigh 94lbs. My blood pressure is typically around 100/70 - I have a home blood pressure cup.

Hi, many thanks for the query!
You need to do- Sr. creatinine, Sr. uric acid, USG KUB, X-ray KUB, Urine (R&M).
Till then take antispasmodics, pain killers, diuretics, Tamsulosin, potassium-magnesium citrate, urine alkalinizing agents with your doctor's opinion.
Drink plenty of water so that at least 2 litres of urine is voided in 24 hrs.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Regards.
