Signs That Your Kidney is in Trouble

KINSHASA, Congo, The DR of - Nov. 28, 2018 - PRLog -- If the kidneys are not working properly, then the excess waste and fluids will accumulate in your body which can eventually lead to other health complications. When you know the symptoms of chronic kidney disease (CKD), you can get the treatment and feel better so it is important to take note if you experience any of the symptoms as CKD symptoms can be very subtle. It is also possible for people to not have any symptoms or sometimes it is also seen that people think that they have any symptoms but it's not necessarily due to a kidney problem. If you have some of the symptoms mentioned below or worry about kidney problems, you should see a doctor for blood and urine tests as it is better to be safe than sorry. Many of the symptoms on this list can be caused by other health problems as well, so one must not come to a conclusion if they see these symptoms and it is best to go to see a doctor as the only way to know the cause of these symptoms is to consult a doctor. Most of the patients with kidney diseases tend not to experience symptoms until the very late stages, that is, when the kidneys are failing or when there are large amounts of protein in the urine.

If you're more tired, have less energy or are having trouble concentrating you should see a doctor as a severe decrease in kidney function can lead to a buildup of toxins and impurities in the blood which can cause people to feel tired, weak and can eventually make it hard to concentrate. Another complication that is seen in people with a kidney disease is anemia, which can also cause weakness and fatigue.

When the kidneys are not filtering properly, toxins stay in the blood rather than leaving the body through the urine which can make it difficult to sleep so if you are having trouble with sleeping, you should immediately see a doctor.

If you have dry and itchy skin, it can be a symptom of kidney disease as healthy kidneys do many important jobs like removing wastes and extra fluid from your body, helping make red blood cells and keep bones strong. They also work to maintain the right amount of minerals in your blood. Dry and itchy skin can be a sign of the mineral and bone diseases which often accompanies advanced kidney disease.

If you feel the need to urinate more often then it could be the symptom of kidney disease. When the kidneys filters are damaged, it can cause an increase in the urge to urinate especially at night. Sometimes this can also behalf a sign of a urinary infection or enlarged prostate in men, so a doctor should be consulted to come to a final conclusion.

If you see blood in your urine, it can be a sign of kidney disease as healthy kidneys keep the blood cells in the body when filtering wastes from the blood to create urine. It is when the kidney's filters have been damaged that these blood cells can start to leak out into the urine.

If your urine is foamy, it could be a sign of kidney disease. Excessive bubbles in the urine especially those that require you to flush several times before they go away indicate that there is protein in the urine.

If you're experiencing persistent puffiness around your eyes, it can also be a sign of kidney disease. This puffiness around your eyes can be because your kidneys are leaking a large amount of protein in the urine, rather than keeping it in the body.

Swelling in the limbs especially in the ankle and feet may also be a sign of kidney disease as decreased kidney function can lead to sodium retention which causes swelling in your feet and ankles.

If you have a poor appetite, it can also mean that you are suffering from a kidney disease. A buildup of toxins resulting from reduced kidney function can be one of the causes for loss of appetite.

Muscles are cramping is also a sign of kidney disease as electrolyte imbalance can result from impaired kidney function. Low calcium levels and poorly controlled phosphorus can also contribute to muscle cramping.
