Donating a kidney typically involves surgery, which can result in pain and discomfort during the recovery period. Most donors experience moderate pain that can be managed with medication. While the surgical site may be sore, many donors find that the pain decreases significantly within a few weeks. Overall, the procedure is considered safe, and most donors are able to return to normal activities after a few months.

Kidney stones (painful)
Donating a kidney is a significant decision that involves understanding the medical, emotional, and logistical aspects of the process. Potential donors must undergo thorough medical evaluations to ensure they are healthy enough for surgery and that their kidney is a suitable match for the recipient. It’s also important to consider the emotional implications, as donating a kidney can affect personal relationships and mental well-being. Finally, donors should be aware of the recovery process and any potential long-term health impacts.
Some of the "downs" (cons, negatives) of donating a kidney include:A person can live with one kidney but if you donate one, and the other becomes diseased, you'll need dialysis or transplant.Preparation for surgery.Going through a surgical procedure.Recovering from surgery.Time off from work.Additional doctor's visits.
Some people may have only one kidney for several reasons, such as having a diseased or injured kidney removed, or donating a kidney to someone in a kidney transplant, or probably less likely might be that they were just born with only one.
The removal of a kidney is a large decision that could be caused by a variety of reasons. Some of these include a failing organ, or donating the organ to another patient.
The kidney stones must be removed as they are very painful, and cause serious harm to the body .
Kidney Stones
hi, a friend of mine currently has leukaemia and she is looking for doners of bone marrow. From what I understand from school and medical leaflets, it is slightly painful for a few days, much like how a vaccination may make your arm feel sore. But hey, you have to remember that the person you're donating to is in a lot more pain than you are.
Kidney infection. Painful urination, cloudy urine, pain around waistline, blood in urine. Definitely a kidney infection.
