Chronic kidney disease (#CKD) - #Symptoms, #causes, #treatment with #homeopathy
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition that occurs when your kidneys don’t work as well as they should to filter waste, toxins, and excess fluids from your body. The word "chronic" means that the condition is ongoing and will require long-term medical care to look after your health.
Patients with chronic kidney disease have a high risk of adverse kidney and cardiovascular outcomes. The effect of dapagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease, with or without type 2 diabetes, is not known.
What are the signs or symptoms of kidney disease?
Kidney disease is hard to detect early because many people do not experience symptoms until the later stages. CKD symptoms and signs may include changes in urination, fatigue, itching, back pain, or swelling of your hands or feet.
CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE OVERVIEW
Chronic kidney disease (CKD, also called kidney failure or renal failure) is a condition in which the kidneys lose some of their ability to remove waste products and excess fluid from the bloodstream. As waste products and fluids build up in the body, other body systems are affected, which can be harmful to your health.
CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE RISK FACTORS
A number of factors can increase the risk of developing CKD, including:
● Diabetes mellitus
● High blood pressure
● A family history of kidney disease
● African-American and other ethnic minorities
● Obesity
● Smoking
● Older age
● Having protein in the urine
● Having autoimmune diseases such as lupus
What causes chronic kidney disease?
A number of conditions can cause permanent damage to the kidneys and/or affect the function of the kidneys and lead to CKD. Three common causes in the UK, which probably account for about three in four cases of CKD in adults, are:
Diabetes. Diabetic kidney disease is a common complication of diabetes.
High blood pressure. Untreated or poorly treated high blood pressure is a major cause of CKD. However, CKD can also cause high blood pressure, as the kidney has a role in blood pressure regulation. About nine out of ten people with CKD stages 3-5 have high blood pressure.
Ageing kidneys. There appears to be an age-related decline in kidney function. About half of people aged 75 or more have some degree of CKD. In most of these cases, the CKD does not progress beyond the moderate stage unless other problems of the kidney develop, such as diabetic kidney disease.
Other less common conditions that can cause CKD include:
Diseases of the tiny filters (glomeruli), such as inflammation of the glomeruli in the kidneys (glomerulonephritis).
Narrowing of the artery taking blood to the kidney (renal artery stenosis)
Polycystic kidney disease. Find out more about polycystic kidney disease.
Blockages to the flow of urine, and repeated kidney infections.
However, this list is not complete and there are many other causes.
