Is There An Appropriate Remedy For Headaches And Fever Caused By Enlarged Kidneys?
My client has enlarged kidneys (I felt them two weeks ago and it was picked up by ultrasound) has had a low grade fever of 38 for over a month and it doesn't respond to medication,has headaches constantly she also has had continuing pain in her hands, wrists, shoulders, neck, upper back and feet. There is no heat or swelling in any of her joints, although her tendon sheaths above wrists and elbows feel "bubbly" sometimes and do respond to massage which gives her some relief. She has been experiencing these sore areas for over two years
