Kidney disease

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) ?

The kidneys purify the waste & excess fluid from the blood. As kidneys fail, waste accumulates. Symptoms develop slowly and are not specific to the disease. Medication helps to manage symptoms for a short period. Few people don't have any symptoms at all but are diagnosed by a lab test. In later stages, filtering the blood with a machine (dialysis) or transplant may be required.
