Chronic Kidney Disease is an irreversible health condition that can eventually necessitate dialysis or transplantation. Major causes include diabetes, hypertension, chronic glomerulonephritis, stone disease, and certain cystic diseases. Knowing the symptoms of CKD is vital for early detection. Responses to CKD range from subtle signs to severe symptoms like nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, increased sleepiness, and extreme cases can even result in convulsions and coma. Understanding your kidneys’ health is important as any damage could have severe consequences. Regular check-ups and screening can help prevent or slow down the progression of CKD.
