Puffy Dark Under Eyes, Frequent Urination With Burning. Any Kidney Problem?
Hi, i like to ask you question about my under eye circles.They are not dark, just a bit puffy and people commenting on how tired i look.Im sleeping very well, 9 hours every night.Last 3 weeks i feel i need to empty my blader almost every 15 minutes.every time its just like a few drops, after that a bit burning feeling, and after 15 minutes is starts again.Do you thing my circles could be related with the kidney problem? Thank you, Ivana

hi ivana,
your description of puffy eyes with urine problems could suggest a problem with your kidneys.
you need to get your urine checked as well as get renal function tests done to rule out kidney disease a renal ultrasound will also show if there is any problem with the kidneys
the symptoms you are experiencing for urine could just be a simple urine infection which is unrelated to the puffy eyes which could be an allergy of some kind of drug or food.
would suggest visit a physician for follow up ant treatment
hope to have answered your query

Hi thanks for your question.
Increased frequency of micturation every 15 minutes indicates most probably your having urinar tract infection (UTI).The second possibility could be benign enlargement of prostate.
I would suggest you to consult a general surgeon who may be able to investigate you for increased frequency of micturation and circle around your eyes.
You may need urine examination and ultrasound abdomen to determine the cause of increased frequency of micturation.Circles round your eyes could be due to urine or prostate problem.
Hope this answers your question.
