Pain In Leg, Xray Shows No Broken Bones, Had Kidney Transplant, Immunosuppressant Medicines, Water Pills
went to the hospital emergency room last night. I was in alot of pain I thought the top of my right foot and big toe was broken. xray showed no broken bones. I have a very high pain tollerence. What could be causing so much pain that would make a person think that they have a broken bone in the foot area? Medical history kidney transplant, immune supressant meds, water pill, potasium
It can be GOUT. It is common with kidney patients and it causes very severe pain. I would advice you to check your serum uric acid level. Also take opinion from your kidney surgeon.
