Dr. Zhao Xinju
Kidney pain may result from excessive work pressure, frequent heavy physical labor, and lack of adequate rest, all of which can damage kidney function. Additionally, frequent sexual activity may weaken kidney function and lead to kidney pain. Moreover, the presence of numerous or large kidney stones can exert pressure on the kidneys, and viral infections that cause nephritis can also trigger kidney pain.
