Early Warning Signs Of Kidney Disease: Kidney problems are increasing rapidly all over the world, the biggest reason behind this is that no obvious symptoms are seen in the initial stages. This is why it becomes very important to recognize their early signs, so that treatment can be started in time and serious complications can be avoided. Dr. Mohit Khirbat told HT that subtle signs of kidney disease are often ignored or they are linked with common diseases. In particular, chronic kidney disease can progress for many years without being detected. By identifying the symptoms in time, the pace of the disease can be slowed down.

Dr. Mohit Khirbat has given some early warning signs of kidney related diseases, which should not be taken lightly.

persistent fatigue or lack of energy
When kidney functioning starts getting affected, waste materials start accumulating in the body. This can cause constant fatigue, weakness and difficulty concentrating. Decreasing the hormone erythropoietin produced by the kidneys can also cause anemia, which causes shortness of breath even with light exertion. Many times people dismiss it as age or general fatigue.

changes in urine
Changes related to urination can be early signs of kidney problems. These include frequent urination at night, foamy urine, blood in the urine or dark colored urine. These symptoms may seem temporary, but they can be a sign of kidney disorder.

swelling of the legs or around the eyes
If the kidneys do not function properly, water starts accumulating in the body. Its effect can be seen in the form of swelling around the eyes, ankles or feet. Often people associate it with standing for too long or eating, but it can also be an early sign of kidney problem.

itching or rashes without any reason

Persistent itching, especially without any skin disease, can be a sign of toxin accumulation in the body and imbalance of minerals like calcium-phosphorus. Itching along with dry and flaky skin can be a warning sign of an internal kidney problem.

nausea or loss of appetite
When kidney function decreases, toxins increase in the blood, which affects the digestion system. Its effects can be seen in the form of nausea, metallic taste in the mouth, bad breath and loss of appetite. These are often confused with normal stomach problems, due to which proper treatment is delayed.
