Kidney Failure is one of the hardest and expensive disfunction to cure. As they kidneys’ role is to regulate electrolytes to keep bones healthy, make more red blood cells and stabilize pressure by filtering excessive fluids and waste material, losing all these can affect your whole system.
These are the signs and symptoms which are commonly connected to kidney failure:
1) Swellings
When you kidneys are not working properly, fluids and waste material are not sufficiently excreted in the body making your face, joints and limbs, bloated and swollen.
2) Urination Changes
See below signs:
-Trouble Urinating
-Pressure during the press
-Dark urine, less frequent urinating and with small amounts
-Pale color of urine, frequent and in large amounts
-Foamy urine
-Many urge to urinate during the night
3) Rash of the skin
When waste build up in your body, it manifest on your skin and causes a lot of itching. When it gets worse, the skin can look unhealthy, dry and irritated.
4)Fatigue
Kidneys also produce the hormone EPO (erythropoietin) that makes more red blood cells. So when they kidneys fail, they stop producing these hormones and can cause extreme fatigue and will affect the brain and muscles too.
5) Shortness of Breath
Because there will be lack of hormones producing red blood cells, oxygen level can be low as well.
6) Metallic Taste in Mouth
Because the waste aren’t sufficiently excreted, you can even taste it in your mouth.
7) Pain
Constant pain in the lower back can be felt, where the kidneys are located.
8) Bad concentration and dizziness
Kidney Failure causes low red blood cells, which causes bad oxygen flow to the brain. Thus, you would always feel light headed and dizzy.
Prevention of this dreaded kidney failure is a healthy lifestyle. We should always be cautious of what we eat and make sure we monitor our blood pressure, uric acid levels, and blood sugar levels.
