0:17
function has diminished often these
0:19
symptoms Escape notice until the kidneys
0:21
are on the brink of failure the key is
0:24

0:26
necessitates awareness of the initial

let's delve into discussing 12 prevalent
0:47
signs to remain Vigilant about number 12
0:51
fatigue and weakness fatigue and
0:54
weakness commonly manifest in kidney
0:56
failure due to the kidney's crucial role
0:58
in sustaining the body's overall
1:00
equilibrium and well-being when the
1:02
kidneys function inadequately the
1:04
removal of waste and surplus fluids from
1:06
the body becomes compromised resulting
1:09
in the accumulation of toxins in the
1:11
bloodstream culminating in feelings of
1:13
exhaustion and feebleness furthermore
1:16
kidney failure induces a decline in
1:18
arthropoid levels a hormone responsible
1:21
for regulating red blood cell production
1:23
thereby leading to anemia which further
1:26
contributes to feelings of fatigue and
1:28
weakness it's important to note that
1:30
while fatigue and weakness can signal
1:32
kidney failure they may also stem from
1:34
various other causes like insufficient
1:37
sleep and imbalanced diet or simply
1:39
fatigue due to Lifestyle factors before
1:42
assuming kidney issues it's advisable to
1:45
prioritize adequate sleep and a
1:47
nutritious diet if there's suspicion of
1:49
a kidney problem seeking medical advice
1:52
for a thorough evaluation is prudent
1:55
number 11 foam in Urus when the kidneys
1:58
are not working at their best their
2:00
ability to efficiently filter the blood
2:02
diminishes leading to valuable
2:04
substances like proteins and essential
2:06
molecules ending up in the urine this
2:08
situation results in the formation of
2:10
foam in the urine caused by the presence
2:12
of proteins giving it a bubbly and
2:15
frothy appearance a condition known as
2:17
protein Uria it's crucial to understand
2:20
that fomi urine doesn't always signify
2:22
kidney failure factors like a heightened
2:25
urine flow rate can also induce bubbles
2:27
in the urine causing it to appear foamy
2:30
however if foamy urine is accompanied by
2:32
additional symptoms such as fatigue
2:34
swelling or alterations in urination
2:37
patterns it's advisable to schedule an
2:39
appointment with a doctor for further
2:41
evaluation number 10 high blood pressure
2:45
the kidney's functions are similar to
2:47
the body's internal hub for managing
2:49
blood pressure they generate hormones
2:51
pivotal in regulating the body's fluid
2:54
and electrolyte equilibrium crucial
2:56
factors influencing blood pressure when
2:58
the kidneys fall alter in their function
3:00
it's akin to A disruption in this
3:02
control center the usual hormones
3:05
responsible for maintaining blood
3:06
pressure stability can't effectively
3:08
perform their role resulting in erratic
3:11
blood pressure levels this surge in
3:14
blood pressure exerts significant strain
3:16
on the kidneys worsening the underlying
3:18
kidney issu it creates a troubling cycle
3:20
where heightened blood pressure
3:22
amplifies the workload on the kidneys
3:24
contributing to their malfunction
3:26
subsequently leading to further spikes
3:30
number nine shortness of breath the
3:33
onset of kidney failure can result in
3:35
shortness of breath due to the
3:36
accumulation of toxins like Ura in the
3:39
bloodstream converting into ammonia this
3:42
process contributes to confusion
3:44
headaches and breathing difficulties
3:46
furthermore kidney failure triggers
3:48
anemia characterized by insufficient red
3:51
blood cells to adequately carry oxygen
3:54
to the body's tissues consequently this
3:57
lack of oxygen transport May induce
3:59
shortness of of breath fatigue and
4:01
weakness additionally kidney failure
4:03
Associated fluid retention prompts the
4:05
accumulation of fluids in the lungs
4:08
further contributing to breathing
4:09
difficulties and shortness of breath
4:12
number eight persistent bad breath a
4:15
variety of things can cause bad breath
4:17
but persistent bad breath could be an
4:19
indicator of kidney failure when the
4:22
kidneys are not functioning properly
4:24
waste products and toxins build up in
4:26
the bloodstream which can cause an
4:28
ammonia likee odor on the breath
4:30
additionally kidney failure can also
4:32
cause a buildup of Ura a compound
4:34
produced by the liver and excreted by
4:36
the kidneys high levels of Ura in the
4:39
bloodstream cause an unpleasant smell on
4:41
the breath so if you have tried
4:42
freshening your breath with mint gum and
4:45
brushing your teeth and it persists it
4:47
is worth checking with your doctor
4:51
concentrating when the kidneys are not
4:54
working properly the toxins and waste
4:56
products that should have been filtered
4:58
out end up lingering in the blood
4:59
bloodstream and when those toxins linger
5:01
for too long they can make their way to
5:03
the brain much like when you are stuck
5:05
in a room with a stinky trash bin and it
5:08
is hard to focus on anything else the
5:10
same goes for the toxins in the brain
5:12
they make it hard for you to concentrate
5:15
it is like the kidneys are the janitors
5:16
of the body keeping things clean and
5:19
when they go on strike the waist builds
5:21
up and starts affecting the rest of the
5:23
body including the brain so if you are
5:25
finding it hard to focus it might be
5:28
worth checking in with your kidney knees
5:29
and seeing a doctor to rule out any
5:31
underlying issues number six swelling in
5:35
the legs ankles and feet when the
5:37
kidneys are not working properly they
5:40
can't filter the blood effectively
5:41
causing fluids and waste products to
5:44
accumulate in the body this buildup of
5:46
fluids leads to swelling in the legs
5:49
ankles and feet number five itchy skin
5:53
kidney failure can cause itchy skin due
5:55
to the buildup of waste substances in
5:57
the bloodstream in cases where the kid
5:59
aren't functioning optimally their
6:01
ability to efficiently filter and
6:03
eliminate waste products toxins and
6:05
surplus fluids from the bloodstream is
6:07
compromised this accumulation of waste
6:10
substances triggers an itching sensation
6:12
on the skin referred to as ureic puitis
6:16
additionally when the kidneys fail to
6:18
function properly it disrupts the
6:20
balance of electrolytes and minerals in
6:22
the body these disruptions contribute to
6:24
skin related issues causing itching
6:27
Sensations and dryness number four
6:30
muscle cramps the kidneys play an
6:33
important role in regulating the balance
6:35
of electrolytes in the body when the
6:37
kidneys are not working properly the
6:39
levels of these electrolytes become
6:41
imbalanced leading to muscle cramps for
6:44
example potassium is an essential
6:46
mineral that plays an important role in
6:48
muscle function in healthy individuals
6:51
the kidneys regulate potassium levels in
6:53
the blood by filtering and excreting
6:56
excess potassium when the kidneys are
6:59
pottassium levels Elevate leading to
7:02
muscle cramps weakness and even cardiac
7:05
arrhythmias in addition muscle cramps
7:07
may also be caused by dehydration and
7:09
ureia a condition caused by high levels
7:12
of waste products in the blood due to
7:14
kidney failure number three frequent
7:18
urination impaired kidney function May
7:20
disrupt the regulation of fluid balance
7:22
in the body resulting in an increased
7:25
need to urinate this condition is
7:28
comparable to seeking fre quent stops on
7:30
a long road trip due to the urge to find
7:32
the next gas station number two urine
7:36
output a notable reduction in the amount
7:38
of urine produced could signal potential
7:40
kidney problems this decrease in urine
7:43
output might be accompanied by changes
7:45
in urination frequency color or
7:48
consistency number one pain in the
7:51
kidney area kidney failure induces pain
7:54
in the upper back just below the rib
7:56
cage on either side of the spine the
7:58
pain might persist or occur
8:00
intermittently and is often accompanied
8:02
by symptoms like fever chills nausea and
8:05
vomiting if experiencing pain in the
8:07
kidney area seeking medical attention is
8:10
advisable in conclusion recognizing the
8:13
warning signs of kidney failure is
8:15
pivotal for early detection and timely
8:18
intervention each of the 12 indicators
8:20
discussed in this video serves as a
8:22
crucial cue to pay attention to one's
