Kidney Diseases
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
To speak of kidney diseases is to refer to a group of conditions that compromise the functioning of the kidneys, the organs responsible for filtering the blood and maintaining the balance of fluids and minerals in the body.
How they show up: They may go on without discomfort for a long time or manifest with swelling, fatigue, changes in the urine, or changes in blood pressure.
Why care for them: Detecting any kidney change in time favors better follow-up, especially in those who have diabetes or high blood pressure.
Which specialist treats them? The nephrologist is the go-to professional for kidney health, with support from the dietitian on eating habits. If you are concerned about your kidneys, a professional evaluation will help guide the care you need.
