Muscle cramps and twitching can be symptoms of kidney-related problems. These symptoms can result from imbalances in electrolytes and minerals, such as calcium and potassium, which the kidneys are responsible for regulating. Muscle cramps and twitching can also be caused by kidney infections, kidney stones, or more severe kidney problems.

If you experience persistent muscle cramps and twitching, particularly when accompanied by other kidney pain symptoms, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional. Proper diagnosis and treatment can help alleviate these symptoms and address the underlying kidney issues. (11)
