Men's Health:8

Did you know that kidney disease affects millions of Nigerians, and most people don't know they have it?

Your kidneys work silently to filter waste from your blood, but when they start failing, your body sends warning signals.

Watch out for these signs:

Swelling - Puffy hands, feet, ankles, or face
Changes in urination - Peeing less often, more often, or foamy urine
Extreme fatigue - Feeling unusually tired or weak
Nausea and vomiting - Persistent stomach upset
Trouble thinking clearly - Brain fog or confusion
Skin changes - Dry, itchy skin that won't go away
Shortness of breath- Difficulty breathing

The scary truth is that people with early kidney disease may not feel sick at all, which is why regular check-ups are crucial, especially if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of kidney disease.

Don't wait until it's too late. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, talk to your doctor about getting your kidney function tested. Early detection can save your life.

PS: Prevention is cheaper than treatment. Regular medical check-ups can catch kidney problems early before they become serious.
