Patient: what is some symptoms od kidney problems? periodically I HAVE PAINS DOWN IN MY LOWER BACK THAT FEEL LIKE A LITTLE PIN STICK AND I NOTICE THAT MY URINE HAS A NEW SMELL NOT THAT IT STINKS JUST A LITTLE SMELL. AND THE LITTLE PIN STAB PAIN COME ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT LOWER BOTTOM NEAR MY UPPER POSTERIOR. Doctor: Thanks for your consultation at HCM!      I have gone through your Case history and as your physcian i totally understands your concerns. My diagnosis is that you have got Urinary tract infection.... This Uti is giving you these symptoms...     Second thing is that you should be looked by Urologist to exclude any renal stones as an underlying cause... Get your urinalysis and XRay KUB and ultrasound done and consult urologist..   Hope your query is adequately answered if you still have any feel free to ask directly on my profile any time....
