Renal infarction is the damage of kidney tissue due to a disruption of blood flow to the kidneys. The blood flow may most commonly be disrupted by a blood clot from the heart obstructing the arteries supplying blood to the kidneys.
Typical Symptoms of Renal Infarction
- History of atrial fibrillation
- Decrease in urine volume
- Back pain
- Low back pain
- Bloody or red urine
- Abdominal pain
- Fever
- Discomfort in the whole body
Diagnostic Questions for Renal Infarction
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Have you been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation?
- Are you urinating less?
- Do you experience back pain?
- Do you have lower back pain?
- Have you ever had red or brown urine?
Treatment of Renal Infarction
Depending on the size of the blood clot, conservative treatment such as medications to dissolve the blood clot and blood thinners to reduce the risk of developing clots in the future may be prescribed. In more severe cases, open surgery may be recommended to remove the obstruction.

My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.

The questions asked and possible causes seemed spot on, putting me at ease for a next-step solution.
(Sep 26, 2024)
Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
