DMPQ: Write a short note on Kidney Disease and Dialysis

Join Our Telegram Channel

A person can live a normal, healthy life with just one kidney. However, at least one kidney must function properly to maintain life.
Diseases that threaten the health and functioning of the kidneys include kidney stones, infections, and diabetes.
Kidney stones are mineral crystals that form in urine inside the kidney. They may be extremely painful. If they block a ureter, they must be removed so urine can leave the kidney and be excreted.
Bacterial infections of the urinary tract, especially the bladder, are very common. Bladder infections can be treated with antibiotics prescribed by a doctor. If untreated, they may lead to kidney damage.
Uncontrolled diabetes may damage capillaries of nephrons. As a result, the kidneys lose much of their ability to filter blood. This is called kidney failure.
The only cure for kidney failure is a kidney transplant, but it can be treated with dialysis. Dialysis is a medical procedure in which blood is filtered through a machine.
