What Causes Kidney Pain With Strong Urine And Shortness Of Breath?

25 years old, 5'1", 145 lbs, have pain on right side near kidney area, shortness of breath (pain in back intensified with deep breaths occasionally), strong urine (no pain associated with urination), tired/lethargic, bad breath, general achiness. I do not drink enough water in a day, maybe 1-2 cups...but when I do drink the recommended daily amount, I can urinate more than once per hour. There is a family history of kidney failure on my mother's side.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
This may be is caused by urinary infection including kidneys infection or urinary stones so you should do urine analysis, urinoculture and kidneys ultrasound to rule these out which are most common causes. You should drink raspberry tea and plenty of water till you do tests. You should reduce salt in your diet as well, alcohol and carbonated drinks. In most cases this is self limiting but sometimes antibiotics are required and more invasive tests such as cystoscopy or pyelography or CT scan. Less common causes include tumors, glomerulonephritis and metabolic diseases.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good
