Hydration: Drinking hot water is generally safe and can be soothing, but it does not have a direct proven benefit specifically for kidney health. Staying well-hydrated is important for kidney function, so drinking enough fluids—whether warm or cold—is key.
-
Temperature of Water: The temperature (hot or cold) does not significantly impact kidney health.
-
Other Factors: Maintaining a balanced diet, controlling blood pressure, and managing blood sugar are more critical for kidney health.
If there are any existing kidney issues or concerns, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice. Overall, drinking warm water can be part of a healthy hydration routine but is not a specific treatment for kidney health.

Can a urine dysmorphic RBC test really tell if the blood in my urine is coming from my kidneys or the urethra? I had results showing 1012 cellshpf in my urine, but when I did the test again 4 days later, it dropped to 12 cellshpf. Does this mean it was a false reading, or could the sample have been off? I'm a bit confused about what to make of these results.
Yes ideally Dysmorphic RBCs indicate renal problem,but in your case as it is an incidental finding for once and is not continuing you can ignore it,if you are woried visit Nephrologist for evaluation and appropriate management
