Nausea and Vomiting
Another symptom of kidney swelling that individuals might notice is nausea and vomiting. These symptoms may result from pain, inflammation and pressure in the abdominal area from the swollen kidney.
Patients may reduce nausea with home remedies, such as eating a bland diet and avoiding drinks that might induce more stomach discomfort. Sticking to broth and water can also help reduce vomiting. Individuals who are vomiting should increase hydration to prevent dehydration, which may worsen symptoms.
