iUKD — An Advanced Centre for Comprehensive Kidney & Urological Care
The kidneys are among the most vital organs of the human body. They help filter the blood and remove waste and harmful substances from the body through urine. They also play an important role in maintaining the body’s fluid, electrolyte and mineral balance. Therefore, even a decline in kidney function can affect several systems of the body.
When kidney function decreases, waste products and other substances may accumulate in the body. The body may then show certain warning signs. These symptoms should not be ignored, and timely medical evaluation is important.
🔹 Swelling around the eyes, face, hands, feet or ankles
When the kidneys are unable to remove excess fluid and sodium effectively, swelling may develop in different parts of the body.
🔹 Unusual weakness and excessive fatigue
Persistent tiredness, weakness or feeling exhausted even during routine activities may be associated with kidney problems.
🔹 Loss of appetite, nausea or vomiting
As kidney function declines, accumulation of waste products in the body may lead to reduced appetite, nausea, vomiting and, in some cases, unexplained or rapid weight loss.
🔹 Changes in urination
Frequent urination, a sudden change in urinary habits, burning sensation while urinating or pain during urination may be associated with kidney or urinary-tract problems.
🔹 Excessive itching of the skin
Significant reduction in kidney function can sometimes lead to the accumulation of certain waste products in the body, which may cause persistent itching.
Having one or more of these symptoms does not necessarily mean that a person has kidney failure. However, such symptoms should not be neglected. Timely consultation with a qualified medical professional can help identify the underlying cause and ensure appropriate treatment.
