Suggest Remedy For Kidney Infection
I am currently on cipro 500 mg for a possible kidney infection, waiting for results. I am extremely tired, mild pain in my lower back most left side by ribs, random leg cramps and pain with a dull constant headache. I have kidney infection last year had to go to ER for fluids and pain meds. This pain and symptons seems less severe but more continual.
