One of the body's signals about kidney disease is the appearance of dry and itchy skin. This was reported by foreign doctors, who explained the symptoms by which the problem can be detected at an early stage.
According to doctors, kidney disease can develop without any symptoms, which leads to late diagnosis of an already chronic condition. Ultimately, the situation may turn out to be so serious that surgical intervention will be required. Therefore, it is very important to be aware of the dangers of kidney problems and detect them at an early stage, when treatment is effective.
Foreign specialists named 3 symptoms that indicate the development of kidney dysfunction.
Changes in diastolic (lower) pressure. Serious deviations from the norm indicate a deterioration in the work of blood vessels of the kidneys: for example, an excessive increase in diastolic pressure indicates the development of renal hypertension.
Deterioration of the skin condition. Itching and dry skin often indicate that the kidneys are not functioning properly. These symptoms appear due to an excessive amount of phosphorus in the body or due to poisoning by metabolic products. In addition to dermatological problems, these factors can also provoke pathological lesions of the intestines and liver.
Symptoms of anemia. Tremors and constant chills, fatigue, shortness of breath, insomnia, weakness - all the signs that appear in anemia can also signal that a person's kidneys are not in order. The occurrence of anemia can indicate the development of kidney diseases, because due to problems with the kidneys, the production of the hormone erythropoietin, which stimulates the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow, slows down.
