What are the symptoms of acute kidney failure?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of acute kidney failure?

Doctor's answer:

Acute kidney failure primarily causes recurrent pain in the kidney area and the inability to urinate. In severe cases, it may require the removal and excision of the kidney, in addition to dialysis treatment.
You are only experiencing lower back pain, which is not a symptom of acute kidney failure. It is usually caused by kidney inflammation or other conditions. You can first go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to check the condition of your kidneys and then receive symptomatic treatment.
