Kidney Health: Early Warning Signs
GeneralHealth
Chronic kidney disease is increasingly common in Bangladesh, often linked to diabetes and hypertension. The kidneys filter waste from your blood, and when they fail, toxins build up dangerously.
Early warning signs of kidney problems:
- Swelling in feet, ankles, or face
- Changes in urination frequency or color
- Persistent fatigue
- Loss of appetite and nausea
- Itchy skin
- High blood pressure that is hard to control
Protect your kidneys by staying hydrated, controlling blood sugar and blood pressure, avoiding excessive painkillers, reducing salt intake, and getting regular checkups. Early detection through simple blood and urine tests can prevent kidney failure.
