10 Of The Most Common Warning Signs That You Have Kidney Failure
#8 – Having Dry And Itchy Skin
© WongnaiThis is another sign that your kidneys are not functioning properly. Normally kidneys are flushing out all the waste out of the body, promoting the production of red blood cells, and also working on maintaining the right balance of minerals and other nutrients. However itchy and dry skin might raise the alarm!
Warning: if you are suffering from a very dry and itchy skin, try your hardest to stay hydrated by drinking much water. You can also ask for your doctor’s advice and see what medications you can take to prevent the itchiness without causing more damage to your kidneys.
How do these warning signs indicate kidney disease rather than type 2 diabetes??
This is useful info, I’ve had lower back pain for weeks which had made me feel slightly nauseous; I’m a driver and been without a regular mode of transport for a couple of years so getting home to the toilet on time has been arduous. I’ve put on weight round my tummy so maybe its that or infection?
I’m not at work so also feel like I’m trespassing on my own territory.
