I can not go to the doctors, because I just have no way to go, there has to be something I can do to relive the pain. Any ideas?

Drink more water, lots of it. Get some real cranberry juice down too. Make sure it is authentic not just the drink crap make sure it has juice. There are pills that work great called cranberry pills. I'm sorry you can't go to the doctor but I've been in that spot as well because of the expense. Lots of water. Stay away from tomato products, and citrus products. High in acid. Eat more bland foods for a while. Mashed potatoes, cereal. I take a tylenol while it isn't beneficial for healing the kidneys it does cut the pain. Drink more cranberry juice this helps too with lots of water start flushing them. Thats what your doing by drinking lots of water.
While you can cure this yourself....if it is a mild kidney infection IF IT IS MORE>>>>you are in danger. You really need antibiotics and can do permanent damage to your kidneys or liver. Is it really worth not seeking medical advice? Surely someone can take you in. I have a degree and personal experience please listen to reason.

First of all how do you know it's your kidneys? Second of all if it is your kidneys there is no home remedy for this problem. Make time make a way to see the doctor. If you have a sever infection you could lose kidney function or an entire kidney. Then you'll be on dialysis for the rest of your life and that will be even more inconvenient! Go to the DOCTOR

Depends on the pain you are having, is it short peircing pains or are they long pains. Belive it or not if they are short pains try drinking alot of water and it will help with flushing oyur system out which should take the strain off the kidney's. Also you may want to take a warm bath the warm temperature will help easy the pain. Also take some advil or aleve for the pain.
If the pains increase or if they dont subside then chances are you have kidney stones, which you should really go to hospital and get them removed or it can intensify.
Also are you having a fever and hot flashes if so chances are you have kidney stones and you should again go to the emergancy room.

My first guess would be that you don't drink enough water. If that is true, try drinking alot of water! It will flush the kidneys. If you do drink plenty of water, then maybe you have lifted something heavy in the last few days, resulting in pressure to your Kidneys. If you are having any additional symptoms such as painful urination...you may have a kidney infection, you can try drinking alot of cranberry juice, but an antibiotic is only thing to cure the infection.

You should get to the doctor.... are you sure that is even your kidneys that are hurting you? Most people don't know exactly where all of their organs are, so they don't know what the source of pain is. You say your kidneys hurt plural....usually with a kidney ailment the pain is on one side or the other. they wouldn't normally be hurting at the same time....yup GO TO THE DOCTOR!

Probably kidney stones.
1. Go to the doctor
2. Drink lots and lots of water and 100% cranberry juice. The idea is to flood and flush your system which will eventually flush the stones. BTW did I say lots?
3. No coffee, caffeine, or soda pop (get the picture)?
4. Check out webmd.com for symptoms
5. Go to the doctor if you haven't already.

I've had a kidney infection before. I've never been so sick in my life. I had horrible pain each side, it was constant, but got much worse if I moved around and tried to walk. If you have pain like that, it could be an infection. Go to the doctor, get someone to take you immediately.

Hi There. I think you might have Kidney Stones, No way, you should refer to a Specialist Kidney Physician as soon as possible.
It may be grave and in a critical condition. Then, Doctor can bring out your kidney stones with a Laser Radiation, without you feel it.
Take care and good health.

Kidney pain can be due to a number of reasons like kidney infection, kidney stones, urinary infection etc. Check if you are getting blood in your urine and if the colour of your urine is unusually dark. Also see if you are suffering from pain while urinating. One thing you might try is to increase your water intake considerably, but I suggest you go see a doctor.
