Kidney Disorders

Kidney diseases also called nephropathy or renal infection cause harm to kidney. Nephritis is inflammatory kidney infection whereas nephrosis is non-inflammatory kidney diseases. Kidney diseases sometimes have an effect on renal failure and urinary organ harm. Acute kidney injury, once referred to as acute renal failure could be a syndrome that is characterized by the speedy loss of the kidney's excretory function and is often diagnosed by the accumulation of end products of nitrogen metabolism (Urea and creatinine) or decreased urine output, or both. Chronic kidney disease also called as chronic kidney failure which describes the gradual loss of kidney function. It includes complications like high blood pressure, anemia (low blood count), weak bones, poor nutritional health and nerve damage. Kidney disease can also increase the risk of heart and blood vessel disease.
