It comprises of conditions that damage kidneys and
impair their ability to maintain hygiene by abnormality in functions. Such
conditions make kidney disease worse; wastes can accumulate to high levels in
patient blood and make them feel sick. Issues like anaemia, high blood
pressure, weak bones, nerve damage and poor nutritional health. Also, kidney
disease elevates the risk of having coronary disease and heart problems. These
problems may occur gradually over a long period of time. Diabetes and high blood pressure are the two main causes of
chronic kidney disease.
