If Your Kidney Is In Danger, The Body Will Give You These 8 Signs!

 Kidneys remove excess waste and fluid from the body, balance electrolytes, regulate blood pressure, increase the number of red blood cells, and support bone health. In brief, they are critical to maintain life.

 

 

 

In case their function is compromised, the entire body is put at great risk. Therefore, knowing how to recognize the symptoms of kidney disorder is of utmost importance. Below you have  a list of 8 signs telling that your kidney `s function is endangered:

 

1.      FATIGUE

 

Healthy kidneys produce erythropoietin, a hormone which increases the number of red blood cells.  A low red blood cell count leads to fatigue as well as problems with the muscles and brain. The same signs may be attributed to anemia.

 

2.      PAIN

 

Pain in the area surrounding the kidneys is a typical sign of kidney stones or urinary tract infection.

 

3.      POOR CONCENTRATION AND DIZZINESS

 

Both kidney failure and severe anemia lead to an insufficient flow of oxygen to the brain, leading to poor concentration, memory problems, and dizziness.

 

4.      METALLIC  TASTE IN THE MOUTH

 

Accumulation of waste in the blood changes the taste of food and causes bad breath.  Metallic taste in the mouth and poor appetite are one of the major signs of kidney damage.

 

5.      SKIN RASHES

 

Accumulation of waste is directly linked to skin rashes and itching.  As the waste accumulates in the blood, the skin dries and get irritated. Creams and lotions cannot solve this issue as the root cause is internal and seeks another approach.

 

6.      SHORTNESS OF BREATH

 

Low red blow cell count, caused by toxic buildup in the lungs, reduces the amount of oxygen in the body, leading to shortness of breath.  This sign is often associated with kidney damage.

 

7.      SWELLING

 

If the kidney function is compromised, excess fluids stay trapped in the body and lead to swelling, especially of the face, limbs, and joints.

 

8.      CHANGES IN THE URINE

 

Most common signs include:

 

• Trouble urinating
• Pressure during urinating
• Urge to urinate during the night
• Foamy urine
• Pale color, frequent urination, and in large amounts
• Dark urine, less frequent urinating and urinating in small amounts
