13. Metallic Taste in the Mouth: The Unpleasant Flavor
A metallic taste in the mouth can be a symptom of kidney-related issues. This can be caused by the accumulation of waste products and toxins in the body, which the kidneys are unable to filter effectively. A metallic taste in the mouth can also be a sign of more severe kidney problems, such as chronic kidney disease or kidney failure.
If you experience a persistent metallic taste in your mouth, especially when combined with other kidney pain symptoms, it’s important to seek medical advice. A healthcare professional can determine the cause of this taste and recommend appropriate treatment options. (13)
