Be alert to drowsiness caused by kidney failure. The body often experiences drowsiness due to work fatigue, but sometimes diseases are not just caused by work pressure. For example, when kidney failure occurs, it can cause drowsiness. So, what kind of illness will occur after kidney failure occurs in daily life?
Drowsiness and fatigue
This may be an early symptom of the disease, but it is easily overlooked as there are too many causes of drowsiness and fatigue. Especially those who "fight hard" in their careers mostly attribute it to work stress and fatigue. If the symptoms improve after a little rest, it is more likely to be ignored.
Yellowish complexion
This is caused by anemia. After all, the occurrence and development of this kind of performance are evenly divided and slow, so there will be no significant contrast for a considerable period of time, just like people often encounter each other and find it difficult to detect various slow development changes.
Edema
This is a relatively noticeable symptom. This is because the kidneys cannot clear excess water from the body, resulting in fluid retention in tissue gaps. In the early stage, it is only swelling in the ankle and eyelids, which disappears after rest. If it develops to persistent or systemic swelling, the condition is already more severe.
Urinary volume change
Due to a decrease in renal filtration function, some patients may experience a gradual decrease in urine output as the disease progresses. Even if the urine volume is normal, the reduction of toxins excreted in the urine will prevent the waste from being completely discharged from the body. So, urine volume does not fully indicate the quality of your kidney function.
Hypertension
Because the kidneys have the function of excreting sodium and draining water. Therefore, sodium and water retention will occur in the body when the renal function is damaged. In addition, the damaged kidney will secrete some substances that can raise blood pressure. Therefore, patients with chronic renal failure may experience varying degrees of hypertension in the early stages. If there is nasal or gum bleeding caused by hypertension and poor coagulation mechanisms, it is even more important to pay attention.
Poor appetite
This is caused by toxin retention affecting digestive function, which most people will not agree with. As the condition progresses, abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and even an increase in bowel movements or loose stools may occur, which is often an important reason why patients have to seek medical attention.
In short, as long as one is vigilant, chronic renal failure can be detected early.
Can early renal failure be cured through expert analysis?
1. Due to the loss of kidney function, doctors will temporarily use dialysis treatment to assist in removing toxins and waste from the body; If patients with acute kidney failure do not receive appropriate treatment or are unable to control it, and the disease evolves from acute to chronic kidney failure, they are likely to develop into uremia and must undergo lifelong kidney washing.
2. Determine the cause of the disease and prescribe appropriate medication, for example, when there is insufficient blood supply or blood loss, provide the patient with replacement of lost body fluids and fluids; If there is an infection, antibiotic treatment should be given to control inflammation and infection.
3. Controlling diet is crucial for patients with renal failure. Due to the disruption of renal function, toxins and waste produced by food cannot be discharged from the body normally. Therefore, special attention must be paid to diet to avoid causing physical burden. Restriction of sodium intake: Due to the high sodium content in salt, excessive sodium in the body of renal failure patients can cause water retention, This can lead to cardiopulmonary failure and exacerbate renal failure.
Be alert to drowsiness caused by kidney failure. For the occurrence of diseases, we need to learn more about the symptoms. When a disease occurs, we can first discover the existence of the disease through the symptoms. In addition, prevention is also important in daily life, and good lifestyle habits can also reduce the occurrence of diseases. Finally, I wish you good health.
