Painful Kidneys, Excessive Urination, Perspiration, Shivering, Hot And Cold Flushes. On Painkillers. Help?

Hi, I am 19yrs old. My kidney has been hurting and I keep getting sharp pains with it, I have noticed I am passing Urine a lot more than usual but It doesn't feel like a water infection as i've had them a lot in my younger age. My whole body is painful and tender to touch, also keep getting pains here and then. I have the sweats, Hot and Cold... Sweating although i'm shivering vice versa. My head hurts and no painkillers are touching the pain???

Hi and welcome to HCM.
It sounds like uroinfection at first but it can also be any body infection icluding respiratory ones or thisis bcateriemia. YOu should do basic blood tests and blood culture for a start. It is hard to find the exact cause but some hormonal/endocrinologic and metahbolic disorders should be considered. Check your thyroid and steroid hormones if female. Wish you good health.
