Is the dark complexion and teeth grinding at night caused by kidney disease?

Patient's question:

Started coughing and treatment on May 9th. Later, toothache occurred again, followed by another round of treatment. By May 20th, a fever developed, and a check-up at Zhengzhou Children's Hospital revealed a viral respiratory infection, which was treated for three days and resolved. During this period, my complexion remained poor and darkened. Due to high fever and anxiety, I forgot about the underlying cause. Now, my complexion is still like this—could there be a problem with my kidneys?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this situation may be caused by parasitic infection or a lack of trace elements. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a stool routine examination combined with trace element index tests to confirm the primary cause and treat accordingly.
