First, see a doctor. Second, if it is kidney, they’ll tell you to reduce your proteins; so make sure now that you’re not eating an excessive amount of protein. For the sake of your kidneys and to still be keto limiting it to 20% is probably appropriate. Hydration is also imperative...for someone with kidney issues, that means more than the standard 64 oz per day. Good luck!

Pain in the kidney is obvious, keto diet stress more on protein and literally no or little on carbs. Due to excess protein, stress on your kidney increases causing pain. Stay hydrated and limit the intake of protein.

I would speak to your dr . I would also make sure you are having lots of fluids. I currentky have a kidney infection so I am on antibiotics so not doing keto but still doing low carb high fat plan .

Very high protein diets can result in kidney disease and albuminuria immediately add more carbs n fluids and see the dr today

the change in your urine chemistry could also have uncovered latent lithiasis. if stones are present in the kidneys and are now moving around it would cause pain. If I were you I would ask for a CT to check for stones as well as kidney disease

Oxalates in leafy green vegetables like spinach can cause kidney stones. To counter it consume fresh squeezed lemon juice about 1 tablespoon every other day. I put 1 Tbsp in a 12 glass fill with ice then water. Lemonade, it stops my pain that flares up in its tracks
