Patient's question:
Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely weak. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's kidney disease. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of kidney insufficiency?Doctor's answer:
The clinical symptoms of kidney insufficiency brought about by diagnosis are relatively numerous. During the compensation and decompensation stages, uremic symptoms are generally the main clinical manifestations. The primary clinical manifestations are usually electrolyte and acid-base balance disorders. If systemic symptoms occur, such as neurological and vascular issues, respiratory problems, etc., the most common symptoms include dizziness, headaches, fatigue, and some symptoms that can lead to cerebral vasospasm, aspiration, increased capillary permeability, resulting in shrinkage of brain nerve cells and cerebral edema.
