Kidney cancer . Perhaps the most terrible diagnosis for those who have kidney problems. What to do to determine this disease? Usually, with this disease in the lumbar region, you can grope for a small compaction, often there is blood in the urine. A person feels a decline of strength and lethargy, sometimes without cause, the temperature rises. A combination of these symptoms may indicate this dangerous disease.

With nephroptosis, the kidneys can not be sick at first. Then the urine begins to stagnate, while analyzing it reveals a large content of red blood cells and proteins, and kidney pain gradually intensifies. A strong inflection of the ureter often leads to the onset of renal colic. If the kidney pain is very strong, there may be a suspicion of benign tumors: adenoma and fibroids.

Sometimes kidney pains indicate the onset of urolithiasis . As a rule, this disease is difficult to confuse with something. If there is sand or stone, then when urinating the patient feels sharp, very severe pain. In the urine, blood may appear. All this is accompanied by severe nausea and vomiting, chills and frequent urination.

There is also a disease, like hydronephrosis . This disease also occurs almost without symptoms. The patient can only feel occasional unpleasant, painful back pain that quickly passes. Sometimes patients complain of a kidney colic. At an early stage, it can be detected only by an x-ray or ultrasound. But at the last stage the kidney increases so much that it can be groped through the front wall of the abdomen.
