What are the signs of kidney failure?

Kidney failure can be said to be a relatively serious disease problem that causes harm to human life and health. Common manifestations of kidney failure are physical discomfort, such as feeling unwell all over, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, poor sleep, poor appetite, frequent fatigue and edema, etc. Some patients may also have anemia, high blood pressure, and other symptoms.

2. Unknown medical history If the patient's past medical history is unknown, it is sometimes necessary to differentiate it from acute renal failure. Anemia, uremic face, hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, increased blood PTH concentration, and reduced kidney size support the diagnosis of this disease. Renal biopsy may be done if necessary. The underlying disease that causes acute renal failure should be identified as much as possible so that the disease can be discovered in time when it occurs.

3. Physical Discomfort: Because the patient's kidneys are damaged, toxins and waste continue to accumulate in the patient's body, and the patient may sometimes feel unwell. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, poor sleep at night, loss of appetite, itching and fatigue. If these symptoms persist for a long time, you should get checked out in time.

4. Edema Edema is the main symptom of patients with kidney disease, and most patients will experience edema. Decreased urine output and frequent urination (especially at night). Swelling of hands, feet and ankles. Other symptoms include shortness of breath and swelling around the eyes. The swelling starts in the eyes and then slowly develops to the whole body, so you should pay special attention to this.
