Friends, the kidney is an important organ of our body. It helps in the elimination of liquid waste through

the urine, but simultaneously it also works to filter the blood

You will be amazed to know that kidney diseases are also called silent killers.

this is because, until the extent of the damage to them is not serious,

we will hardly notice the disease. Since the organ is quite necessary, and so more

are the complications. Mainly kidney diseases are categorized into four types, in which first is

Acute Kidney Disease during which the kidneys suddenly get damaged.

Second is Chronic Kidney Disease in which the extent of damage is so large

that it takes years to get recovered. Third are the

Polycystic Kidney Diseases in which blisters like growth appear in the kidneys that get filled with water.

Fourth are the nephrotic syndrome in which the protein level

of the body gets reduced as it leaks. Now, all these conditions bring with themselves

symptoms. During kidney damage, you will witness anyone or

sometimes more than one symptoms are visible.

Among all the symptoms, the few are blood accompanying the urine, high blood pressure, pain and

itching while urinating, pain in the areas below the abdomen and on the back.

Swelling in the eyes and the face, poor concentration over things, breathlessness

can also be seen. Along with this, you may also notice persistent itching on the skin

and vomit may also occur. So actually who gets such diseases? The truth is that

this can develop in anyone. But if your blood pressure and blood sugar

usually remains high, you are obese, have a family history of kidney disease, and

if you have a heart-related disease, then your chances of developing kidney disease increase.

Or if your age exceeds 60 even then your likelihood of having this disease is quite high.

If your blood pressure usually remains high, then this also damages your arteries

that transmutes the blood in our body. This results

in the obstructed flow of oxygen and blood towards the kidneys because of

which the production of renin is slowed down and the blood pressure

is not able to remain under control. Because of diabetes, the kidneys suffer from diabetic nephropathy.

Due to which our eyes, nerves, and the heart get damaged severely.
