What Causes Kidney Pain With A Habit Of Alcohol Drinking?
Hi,I have been drinking heavily for a month then came to my senses and stopped.I am getting slight pain in my lower back (kidney area) since I stopped.I was drinking 2 to four litres of cider per day.After about 3 days the pain is relieving but my eurine is still the same colour as the cider \i was drinking.I think I know what you are going to say ,I just hope there is no permanent damage.As I said the pain only started when I stopped. Thanks Tom I cannot afford a payment but can forward it to you on the 18th of this month you have my word
As u said your alcohol consumption for a month was bad . Alcohol consumption leads to dehydration and eventually causes formation of kidney stones . These stones or may be a single stone can obstruct the passage of urine and cause the pain . The pain can be on and off depending upon the site of the stone. I advice you to drink at least 2-3 litres of water per day (helps in flushing out the stone) and consult your family doctor to get a ultrasound(to know the size and site of the stone if present) done and rule it out.
Thank you
