There are various types of glomerulonephritis, each with its cause and risk factors. While some types are temporary and can be treated easily, others are chronic and can lead to permanent kidney damage.

Treatment for glomerulonephritis would vary based on the cause of it. It may involve medications to reduce inflammation, control blood pressure, or suppress the immune system. In severe cases with significant kidney damage, dialysis or a kidney transplant might be necessary.

Despite their relatively small size compared to the brain and heart, the kidneys possess a remarkable capacity for blood flow! This enables the kidneys to efficiently filter and process blood to maintain the body's fluid balance, eliminate waste products, regulate electrolytes, and help control blood pressure ✅

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) disrupts the kidneys' ability to effectively filter waste products and excess fluids from the blood, leading to a buildup of toxins and electrolyte imbalances in the body. AKI can arise swiftly and can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

AKI symptoms may vary depending on its cause. Among the indicators are swelling in the legs, fatigue, shortness of breath, poor concentration, or pain in the back region. If you have any questions regarding AKI, contact us at (+65) 6970 0020 or WhatsApp us at +65 9100 1550 today!

Kidney failure, also known as End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), occurs when the kidneys can't effectively filter waste products and excess fluids from the blood. Two main treatments for managing kidney failure are Dialysis and Kidney Transplant ✅ Let's learn about them 👉🏻

🟢 Dialysis
There are two types of dialysis — hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Both remove waste product and excess fluids from the body and stabilises electrolyte and acidity in your blood.

🟢 Kidney Transplant
This procedure involves placing a healthy kidney in the body to restore kidney function and eliminate the need for regular dialysis. However, not everyone is a suitable candidate, and a thorough medical evaluation is necessary before considering a transplant.

For personalised advice on the most suitable treatment, consult our Senior Consultant Nephrologist, Dr Alvin Ng. Book an appointment today at +65 6970 0020 or WhatsApp us at +65 9100 1550.

Our kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste products, toxins and excess fluids from the blood. They also help maintain our overall bodily balance and prevent the buildup of harmful substances.

If we don’t look after our kidneys, it may lead to kidney failure, known as End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) – a severe condition where the kidneys lose their ability. Understanding the common causes of kidney failure is essential for early detection, prevention, and effective management of this potentially life-threatening condition.
