Kidney treatment is much easier when the damage(s) has been diagnosed much earlier. This post is aimed at warning you generally of kidney damages to avoid bigger health problems showing up.
DEFINITION
The kidney is a pair of bean-shaped organs below your ribs and behind the stomach. The kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long(a large fist size). The kidneys' major jobs are to filter the blood and to remove waste, in that case accumulation of toxins in the blood is possible when the kidney aren't working properly.
These are what you should look out for:
1). SWELLING OR EDEMA:
These(swelling or edema) can effrct as a cause of improper functioning of the kidney. This is the abnormal accumulation of fluid under the skin or body surface. These fluids may accumulate in body parts such as; legs, ankle, face, hands; but in more cases can accumulate in internal body organs such as heart or lungs. There may be immediate remedies for this swelling before discovering the underlying cause of it.
2). SKIN PROBLEMS:
Serious itching, dryness, soriasis and rashes may be caused by improper functioning of the kidney. There are a number of topical treatments, prescription, OTC, and natural ingredients that can help; however, these will not address the underlying condition.
3). LOWER BACK PAIN:
A common symptom for a person who is suffering from poor kidney health is discomfort and pain in the lower back area. The pain may begin on one side and will spread within a short time if left untreated.The discomfort will be eased sometimes after urination is done.
4). URINATION PATTERNS:
Another common warning signal is changes in urinary function such as an odd or unfamiliar odor, paler or darker appearance, and reduced or increased frequency.
Urine may suddenly become foamy or it may become painful to urinate.
If you experience any of these symptoms or discover blood in your pee, it is important to consult a professional immediately.
Generally speaking changes in urinary patterns are signals of acute kidney problems.
5). OXYGEN FAILURE:
The produce of erythropoietin which is responsible for the production of oxygen carrying the red blood cells is an important and vital functions of the kidney. The shortage of red blood cells in the body can result in anemia or iron deficiency.
Low iron levels can make individuals feel cold even in a warm environment as well as chronic weakness and fatigue.
