You are always tired
Kidneys filter waste products from your blood and pass them out through urine. When the kidneys are not functioning properly, toxins build up. One of the common symptoms is fatigue. You may feel spent, weak, or have trouble concentrating. The kidneys make hormones that help your body make red blood cells. If you have too few of these, your blood won’t be able to deliver enough oxygen to your muscles and brain.
Bad sleep
Research suggests there may be a link between sleep apnea and chronic kidney disease (CKD), which can damage your organs over time and lead to kidney failure. Sleep apnea prevents your body from getting enough oxygen and can partially damage your kidneys. CKD can in turn cause sleep apnea by narrowing the throat, accumulating toxins, and other ways.
Itchy skin
This can happen if your kidneys can’t remove toxins and they build up in your blood. This can cause a rash or itchiness all over. Over time, the kidneys can’t balance the minerals and nutrients in your body. It can lead to mineral and bone diseases, dry and itchy skin.
Swollen face and legs
If your kidneys can’t remove sodium well, your body will retain fluid. It causes swelling of hands, feet, ankles, feet and face. In particular, you may notice swelling in your feet and ankles. Also, if you leak protein in your urine, you may develop swelling around your eyes.
