The Common Kidney Problems and Kidney Treatments
One of the most uncomfortable medical conditions is having kidney problems.
There are
different types of kidney problems.
One type is called acute kidney failure, which is
caused by the sudden loss of blood, accident, or an infection.
Another type of kidney
problem is the chronic kidney disease.
This happens when you lose over one third of
your kidney function in over three months.
Generally chronic kidney disease leads to
kidney failure if not treated.
Kidney stone is another common kidney problem, which is a
result of excessive accumulation of chemicals like oxalate and calcium phosphate.
These chemicals will crystallize in your kidneys and form stones.
As the function of your
kidney drops off, waste starts to build up in your blood which will lead to another serious
condition.
If you are diagnosed with kidney failure, you can choose between kidney transplant and
dialysis as treatment for your kidney disease.
