Patient's question:
Is back pain and fever a sign of uremia? My friend's uncle has been experiencing frequent lower back pain and fever recently. Could it be uremia?Doctor's answer:
Back pain and fever may be caused by various reasons. It is recommended that you first go to the hospital for a thorough examination. If there are no symptoms such as proteinuria or hematuria, it does not indicate uremia. It is advised that patients undergo a kidney function test at the hospital when necessary. Pay attention to protecting your kidneys in daily life. Enhance dietary nutrition and adopt a healthy lifestyle. Avoid overexertion and get adequate rest. Drinking more water daily can help expel some bacteria, and proper treatment can lead to recovery.
