🚨 The Silent Warning Signs of Kidney Disease 🚨
Did you know that diabetes and hypertension are the leading causes of kidney disease? 🤔 Many people don’t realize their kidneys are at risk until it's too late! This Saturday, let’s uncover the early warning signs and how you can protect your kidneys. 🩺💙
🔎 What are the silent signs of kidney disease?
⚠️ Unexplained fatigue & difficulty concentrating
⚠️ Swelling in your feet, ankles, or face
⚠️ Changes in urine – foamy, dark, or frequent nighttime urination
⚠️ Persistent itching & dry skin
⚠️ Nausea or loss of appetite
🚨 Diabetes + High Blood Pressure = Double Trouble for Your Kidneys
🔹 High blood sugar damages the tiny blood vessels in your kidneys
🔹 High blood pressure makes it harder for your kidneys to filter waste
🔹 Without regular checkups, kidney disease can creep in without symptoms
🛑 Don’t wait for symptoms to show! If you have diabetes or hypertension, regular kidney function tests (eGFR, creatinine, urine albumin) are a MUST.
