News Topical, Digital Desk : Kidneys work to filter toxins from the body. Therefore, it is very important for it to remain healthy. However, due to our changing lifestyle, our kidneys suffer a lot of damage (Kidney Disease).
But if kidney disease is detected on time, it can be prevented from progressing. However, many of its symptoms (Symptoms of Kidney Disease) are so minor that people often ignore them. Let us know 4 such common symptoms of kidney disease.
Loss of appetite
A common symptom of kidney disease is loss of appetite. When the kidneys do not function properly, toxins start accumulating in the body. These toxins affect the digestive system, causing problems like nausea, vomiting and loss of appetite. Sometimes a metallic taste in the mouth or a change in the taste of food can also be a sign of this. If you do not feel hungry for a long time and suddenly start losing weight, then this can be a sign of kidney problem.
Changes in urine
Changes in urine pattern can be an early sign of kidney disease. During this time, such changes can be seen in urine-
- frequent urination , especially at night
- dark coloured urine or blood
- Foaming of urine
- Pain or burning when urinating
- Urine volume is more or less than normal
These changes indicate that the kidneys are unable to filter the blood properly.
Back pain
The kidneys are located in the lower back of the body. Infection, inflammation or stones in the kidneys can cause pain in the lower back on one or both sides. This pain is different from common back pain and is often felt deeper. Kidney pain does not change with sitting or getting up or movement and is often accompanied by fever, nausea or changes in urine.
Constant fatigue
Healthy kidneys release a hormone that helps in making red blood cells. But when the kidneys are damaged, this hormone is produced less, which leads to a lack of blood in the body . Due to this, the right amount of oxygen is not able to reach every part of the body and one feels constant fatigue and weakness.
