Best Answer

When you have a kidney infection, taking a non-aspirin such as Tylenol or Advil (or other products containing ibuprofen and Acetaminophen) will help alleviate the pain and some swelling. It is advised however that if you have symptoms of a kidney infection, especially if you have them regularly, you need to seek medical attention and speak with your doctor about a prescription antibiotic. Your kidneys are able to tell more about your health than meets the eye, and it could be a sign of something more serious.
