Be careful about these silent indications of kidney infection
Posted on: 30/Aug/2018 10:02:58 AM
For our energy purpose as well as for satisfying our taste buds, we all eat foods plus consume fluids. It is well known that most foods and fluids we consume are used up by our body in generating more energy. The remaining foods and fluids along with other toxins, wastes etc rejected by the body pass out of our body. This is done by our excretory system. It is important to mention here that bean shaped kidneys located at the back of the abdominal cavity play an important role in removing excess waste and toxins from our body. It is very important for our kidneys to be healthy so that the above mentioned work is done efficiently. Kidneys could get affected by the bacteria entering through our urinary tract.
There are few silent indications of kidney infections in us and these when ignored could lead to many dangerous issues later. These silent indications are
Urge to urinate frequently:
Sometimes silent infection in our kidneys is indicated by our frequent urge to urinate. This frequent urge to urinate would occur even though we might not have taken more liquids, not having diabetes etc. In that situation we must be more careful. It must be noted that the tissues of the kidneys get affected by the bacterial infection, inflammation and irritation of tissues occurs. This stimulates the urinary bladder more and making us to urinate often.
Urine smell being different:
Urine starts to smell foul or has putrid odour and this could happen in us during kidney infections. This odour would be totally different from the usual odour of the urine. This clearly shows that our kidneys are infected. Pus cells are produced in the kidneys and when these pus cells get flushed out through urine then foul smell occurs.
Pain or burning sensation during urination:
This is also one important silent signs of kidney infection. This pain or burning sensation mostly occurs in women during urination and they neglect it by thinking it as a urinary tract infection. It could also be a silent sign of kidney infection in them. This pain is due to inflammation of urethra and bladder caused by the infection in kidneys.
Blood in urine:
Never ignore when you get blood while urinating. It is said that blood in urine along with pain and foul urine smell are signs of kidney being infected. Bleeding in the kidneys might be due to inflammation and infection in kidneys and this blood gets mixed with urine and comes out during urination.
