Depression on both sides of the waist may be a kidney problem, as well as normal anatomy, old fracture of the lumbar spine, etc. For some people with kidney problems, such as glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, renal tumors, etc., edema can be caused by abnormal kidney function, and depression appears after pressing both sides of the waist. Usually, people with kidney problems are also prone to urinary abnormalities (hematuria, foamy urine, etc.), elevated blood pressure and other symptoms. It is worth noting that depression on both sides of the waist is not necessarily a kidney problem, but also need to be alert to other conditions. In some people, the depression on both sides of the waist is considered to be the lumbar fossa, which is mainly on both sides of the hip above the sacral vertebrae and the lumbar vertebrae joint, and is a normal phenomenon. For some people with old fractures of the lumbar vertebrae, they may feel sunken on both sides of the waist because the bone scabs formed after recovery from the fracture cannot be connected. Patients with depression on both sides of the waist are advised to consult a regular hospital in time, complete the relevant examinations under the guidance of a physician, and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
