The risk of kidney failure after a heart attack can vary depending on several factors, such as the extent of the damage to the heart and how well the patient responds to treatment. However, some studies have shown that about 10-20% of patients with myocardial infarction (heart attack) may develop acute kidney injury (AKI) and AKI is associated with an increased risk of death.

Q: What causes kidney failure after a heart attack?

I am 45 yrs old woman with one kidney.i have a stomach pain and I have taken pudina Hara liquid several times but there is no any effect on the pain. Just have taken higene tablet. I want to ask you that can I take colinol tablet as I have only one kidney, does this colinol tablet affect the kidney. Please give your appropriate suggestions.

Female | 45

The stomach can hurt in many ways such as due to excess acid, digestive problems, or infections. Since the pudina Hara and Hygiene tablet did not help, it is good that you are cautious about taking new medicines with one kidney. Colinol tablet may affect your kidneys. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional before taking any new medication due to your unique situation. Health and safety should always be the main priority. Seek an opinion from a nephrologist before trying a new medication.

Urine culture albumin-p resent in tracces,,,,ka matlab

Female | 33

If your urine has trace amounts of albumin, it means a small amount of protein got into it. This might show your kidneys have trouble or infection. It could cause swelling, frothy pee, or feeling tired. Make sure to drink lots of water, eat healthy, and skip salty foods. But if this goes on, you should see a nephrologist so they can check it out and treat you right.

This is Salam Aziz from Iraq male with 58 years old.my CT scan report shows my left kidney normal BUT there are two well define non enhancing cysts one lower cortical measure 11 mm @ the other larger exophytic measure 75 x 55 mm ( Bosniak I) . The doctors here told me i have two options either remove it or only remove the tumor and leave the rest.I am with the second option if possible ? I am ready to fly to india. please dont hesitate to ask any question. Best Regards Salam Aziz saal6370@gmail.com +964 770 173 8677

Male | 58

your CT scan report reveals two cysts in the left kidney and one is a larger exophytic cyst classified as Bosniak I it can be explained why less invasive alternatives options are to consider. The second alternative that you described, namely the excision of a tumor (presumably a large cyst) alone while sparing other parts of the kidney. The ultimate decision should be discussed with your urologist or surgeon.

I am 48 years old. There is albumin (protein)+1 present in my kidneys. I am experiencing a fever as well as pain in my back. I have hypertension and diabetes as well.

Female | 48

According to what you have said, it may be a sign that there is an infection in one or both of the kidneys or even some sort of damage if the protein in your urine is accompanied by other symptoms like fever, backache, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Having protein present within urine isn’t normal at all, especially when taken together with these other signs. So you must see a nephrologist as soon as possible to have this checked out.

I am 17 year old male my urine color is yellow can you tell me why since I was a child

Male | 17

Urine normally appears yellow due to urochrome pigment. Darker yellow often results from dehydration or certain foods consumed. Drinking more water typically lightens the color. Pain or burning during urination merits discussing with a urologist. Urochrome presence alone is usually innocuous and not a major concern. But combined with other symptoms, it may signal an underlying issue requiring medical evaluation. Overall, yellowish urine alone is generally harmless, as long as no other troubling signs accompany it.

Hi, I have end-stage kidney failure and I've been doing hemodialysis for 4 years now, and I've been worrying about my fistula or how long it is going to last before I get a tube stuck in my neck as an alternative. Today, the bulge on my arm which I assume is the fistula got moved or at least something got moved slightly causing discomfort and a change of shape of the bulge. Is that a cause for concern? It doesn't have redness or pain in the exact place, but I'm worried sick. Can this be fixed by a surgery? Other questions that have been bothering me. How about if it got ruptured? It started to bulge and reddened. Can it still be fixed? Also, let's say my left arm fistula died and I had to use my right arm. Can I still use my left arm for fistula once it's healed in the future? Thank you for your answers in advance, I'm a teenager who got dealt with a bad hand right from the get-go and I wish to know more about my current situation.

Male | 18

It’s understandable to be concerned about changes in your fistula. If you notice any discomfort, change in shape, or other symptoms like redness, it's important to check it. A vascular surgeon can assess your fistula and determine if any intervention is needed. Even if your current fistula fails, it's possible to create a new one in the same arm after healing. This should be evaluated by your doctor. Please consult your nephrologist or a vascular surgeon for a detailed examination and advice.

The foamy pee, burning when you pee, and constant back pain could mean a kidney issue. High creatinine level signifies kidney troubles. These symptoms could result from an infection, kidney stones, or a more severe kidney condition. It's crucial to visit your urologist soon to identify the cause and get proper treatment. You may need to see a nephrologist, a kidney specialist, for further evaluation and care.

Kidney stone & mild splitting of pelvicyceal system

Male | 21

The kidney stone is a minuscule pebble-like object that your kidney produces. Rarely, a mild splitting of the pelvicalyceal system, where urine collects in the kidney, maybe the problem. The symptoms may include back or side pains, a bellyache, or pain during urinating. If you drink lots of water, it can be easier for you to pass the stone. If the size of the stone is too large, a nephrologist might need to assist you in getting rid of it.

Sometimes when I’m in a certain position and I cough or laugh hard my kidney will have a quick sharp pain. It has happened twice today and I noticed it about a month ago I would say but it’s not often. Should I be concerned about this? It is giving me anxiety.

Female | 18

You may have "referred pain" from kidneys. Sometimes, coughing or laughing hard moves kidneys slightly, causing sharp pain. This could be a kidney stone or muscle strain near the kidney. To ease anxiety, drink water and avoid motions triggering pain. If pain continues or worsens, contact a nephrologist for evaluation.

Male | 32

You've gotten to the fifth stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Your kidneys barely work at this advanced stage. Exhaustion, swelling, and chills frequently occur. Hypertension, diabetes, or other illnesses can lead to this condition. Stem cell treatment isn't typically used for CKD. Discussing treatment choices with your nephrologist is highly recommended for Stage 5 CKD management.

Female | 17

When getting a blood test, it may show if someone has too much 'NIC' in their system. This happens when people eat too many things with salt or if their kidneys are not working well. If you feel thirsty and tired all the time, or if your feet and legs swell up - those could be signs that something is wrong because of too much 'NIC'.

My mother has kidney cyst problem what should we do?

Female | 60

Kidney cysts are comparable to tiny fluid-filled balloons that develop on the kidneys. They are widespread, notably as we grow old. Individuals with kidney cysts display no symptoms and require no treatment. However, if the cysts are painful, infectious, or result in hypertension, your mother needs an experienced nephrologist. In cases where the cysts are problematic, a physician may propose them to be drained off sometimes even surgery might be necessary depending on certain conditions.
