The kidneys are vital organs responsible for filtering waste, balancing fluids, and regulating blood pressure. When your kidneys start to fail, your body will send signals that shouldn’t be ignored. Recognizing these signs early can help prevent serious complications. Here are 10 warning signs that your kidneys might be in danger.
1. Persistent Fatigue and Weakness
If you often feel exhausted even after resting, your kidneys may not be filtering toxins effectively. This can lead to anemia, which reduces oxygen supply to your body, causing fatigue.
2. Changes in Urination
Since kidneys regulate urine production, any changes in frequency, color, or consistency may indicate an issue. Look out for:
- Increased or decreased urination
- Foamy or bubbly urine (a sign of excess protein)
- Dark, bloody, or cloudy urine
3. Swelling in Feet, Hands, or Face
When kidneys fail to remove excess fluid and sodium, swelling (edema) can occur in the legs, ankles, hands, and face.
4. Lower Back Pain
