Symptoms of chronic kidney disease and warning signs

Chronic kidney disease may not manifest it clearly until your kidney function is significantly impaired. Treatment of chronic kidney disease focuses on slowing the progress of kidney damage, often by controlling the basic causes. Chronic kidney disease can progress to end-stage renal failure, which is fatal without hemodialysis (dialysis) or kidney transplantation.

Chronic kidney disease (chronic renal failure) is a condition in which renal function is impaired or stopped working, it is impossible to eliminate toxins and excess fluid from the bloodstream.

Chronic renal failure means that the dialysis function of the kidneys is having problems. If this lesion lasts more than 3 months and cannot be restored then it is called chronic kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease is dangerous because when at an early stage the disease usually does not have obvious symptoms, warning signs appear only when the kidneys have been damaged.

Patients with chronic kidney disease may not notice any signs if you are sick at an early stage. Most patients do not notice any symptoms when the disease is at an early stage. This is very dangerous, since the kidneys can damage in a serious way that you cannot recognize.

Some common symptoms in patients with chronic kidney disease such as:

• Vomiting or frequent nausea
• Urinate more often than usual, or less than usual
• Always feeling tired or short of breath
• No interest in eating

• Moody spirit, no vitality
• Swelling of the feet and ankles
• Chest pain, if fluids accumulate around the mucous membranes of the heart
• Shortness of breath, if fluid accumulates in the lungs
• High blood pressure (hypertension) difficult to control

The signs and symptoms of kidney disease are usually nons specific, which means that these signs can also be caused by other diseases. Because your kidneys are highly adaptable and can compensate for lost function, signs and symptoms may not appear until i i.e., i.e. the kidneys are i can't recover.

A child with chronic kidney disease may also feel more tired and drowsy than usual, have less appetite than usual and do not develop as expected.
