About

Structure of kidney

kidneys are an especially important organ of our body. Kidneys are fist-sized soft organs, which lies towards the back under the ribcage, partially covered by the lower ribs. Kidneys have especially important roles in our body, which keeps us in good health. We are born with two kidneys each person. One in a 1000 person can be born with just one kidney. Sometimes kidneys are not in the location as described above, and they move to another part of the abdomen.

ITCHING IN PEOPLE WITH KIDNEY DISEASE

A personalized diet plan helps contain phosphorus in check which is a cause of itching. Average daily dietary intake of phosphorus is about 1550 mg. Alarmingly high levels of phosphates are present in processed foods including meats, cheeses, dressings, beverages, and bakery products. Dark cola also contains phosphorus. Phosphate additives usually can be identified by reading the ingredients list on the food label. A typical goal for phosphate restriction for a dialysis patient is 900 mg/d.

Risk factors for kidney disease

People with diabetes, especially uncontrolled blood sugar, hypertension, history of renal stone disease, autoimmune diseases like SLE. Admitted patients with severe sepsis, drug abusers like a painkiller. Family history of kidney disease.

Diagnosis of kidney disease

A detailed history of the patient is taken then we try to elucidate the risk factor if the person coming to our clinic is at the risk of kidney disease. After some tests, we confirm the kidney disease, and according to the type of kidney disease, treatment is given for the same. A simple urine routine and microscopic examination will give a lot of information about the kidneys. Imaging with ultrasound or CT scan helps us understand the structural aspect of the kidney.
Sometimes we also need to know the blood supply for the kidneys, so we do a Doppler of the blood vessels. Apart from this, we also do some blood tests like serum urea serum creatinine, serum starting c Serum uric acid, Serum calcium zero phosphorus, sodium, potassium. These tests help us determine the type of kidney disease in a patient.
