KIDNEY DISEASE

Introduction: The bean-shaped organ in the human thumb size, near the middle of the back just below the rib cage is medically known as a kidney. The kidneys filter blood known by the kidneys into small units as nephrons. Each kidney contains nearly a million of these nephrons, the elimination of waste and extra water to which we call urine. The urine flows through tubes known as ureters, the bladder stores the urine until it is discharged from the person. The drop in the blood is caused by the traditional allocation of active tissue and the food we eat. After the body absorbs the nutrients they need, the rest is in the blood. Well, if the kidneys do not eliminate such waste, it remains in the blood and harms the body. The damage develops over several years in the kidneys and no obvious symptoms all the shows in advance. This leads to kidney disease.



Types of kidney diseases: There are several types of kidney diseases such as: polycystic, pyelonephritis, kidney reflux, renal failure, systemic lupus, renal acidosis, mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, MPG, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis - MG, hemangiomas, parenchyma Alport, disease and diabetes insipidus.

Cause: There are several reasons that cause for kidney desease, such as:
• Diabetes: The body does not use glucose properly and that remains in the blood, such as poison
• Hypertension: Increased blood pressure can damage the small blood vessels in the kidney
• Inheritance: Some kidney diseases are inherited and is found in the families.

Symptoms: The patient during an initial phase of renal disease hardly feel any disease. But if it worsens the disease, the patient pass urine more leaves him tired and itchy. The appetite may be disturbed or nausea and vomiting. Swelling and numbness in hands and feet can be determined. The concentration is effective and impaired development drowsiness. The skin turns darker and cramping muscles are also seen.

Diagnosis: Similar to high blood pressure or high blood pressure, kidney desease also still preliminary and does not show any noticeable symptoms. There may be symptoms, but the patient may not feel like he never felt sick from it. However, for tracking the disease, the doctor suggests certain simple laboratory tests, such as:
• Measuring serum creatinine in the blood for the assessment of glomerular filtration rate
• Measure the protein level in urine, elevated mean improper function of the kidneys
• Check blood pressure - both systolic and diastolic

Treatment: The kidney disease is untreatable, but in the first phase of the illness of patients, his kidneys last longer by simply following his doctor's recommendations. Also, the risk of paralysis, stroke and heart attack should be minimized, such as kidney patients are susceptible to such diseases.
