Kidney Failure Treatment in Chennai

Chronic kidney diseases

This is a condition characterised by the gradual loss of function of one or both kidneys. Unfortunately, in most cases it goes undetected until it has reached the advanced level. In Chronic Kidney Disease kidneys loose their ability to eliminate unwanted materials and help balance fluids, electrolytes, and control production of RBC’s in the body.

There are multiple reasons for Chronic Kidney Disease that result in the destruction of nephrons (basic structural & functional unit of the kidney). It leads to the destruction of kidney mass resulting in hypertrophy (enlargement) of nephrons which in turn results in sclerosis (hardening of the kidney) and ends up in kidney failure.

Effect of diabetes on kidneys

Studies have shown that 30% of the type 1 diabetes and 40% of type 2 diabetes patients will eventually suffer from kidney failure. So if your diabetes has still not taught you the discipline of taking regular medications, checkups, and dietary control, then the fate of your kidneys would end up in a dialysis or transplant.

Most often people are unaware of the relationship between kidneys and diabetes. To describe it in a simple manner, this is what happens to your kidneys when there is a prolonged exposure to glucose; the blood vessels in the kidneys would get damaged and the drainage mechanism is hampered, and the nerves too get affected and there will be difficulty in emptying the bladder. This increases the chances of urine backflow and can severely injure kidneys with infections.
