Kidney disease is a silent but serious condition that can impact overall health. Early detection is key to preventing complications. If you notice any of these signs, consult a doctor promptly.
Kidney Function and Disease
Your kidneys filter waste, balance electrolytes, and regulate blood pressure. Kidney disease, caused by conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or infections, can progress to kidney failure if untreated, requiring dialysis or a transplant.
Urination Changes: Increased frequency, decreased output, or foamy urine.
Fatigue and Weakness: Anemia due to reduced kidney function.
Swelling (Edema): Fluid retention in legs, hands, face, or abdomen.
Persistent Back Pain: Linked to kidney stones or infections.
Weight Loss or Appetite Loss: Waste buildup causes a feeling of fullness.
Nausea and Vomiting: Due to toxins in the bloodstream.
Difficulty Sleeping: Night cramps, restless legs, or frequent urination.
Metallic Taste: A sign of uremia from waste buildup.
Muscle Cramps: Caused by electrolyte imbalances.
Itchy Skin: Toxins in the blood can cause itching.
