Your kidneys are vital organs that help filter waste from your blood, balance your body’s fluids, and produce hormones that regulate important functions like blood pressure. If they aren’t working properly, it can lead to various symptoms. Here are **10 signs your kidneys might not be functioning properly**:
1. **Swelling (Edema)**
– **What it is**: The kidneys help remove excess fluid from your body. If they’re not functioning properly, fluid can build up, causing swelling in your legs, ankles, feet, or even the face.
– **Why it happens**: When kidneys can’t filter waste and excess fluid properly, it accumulates in the body, leading to visible swelling.
2. **Fatigue**
– **What it is**: Feeling extremely tired or weak, even after a full night’s rest.
– **Why it happens**: The kidneys produce erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates red blood cell production. If kidney function declines, this hormone production decreases, leading to anemia, which causes fatigue and weakness.
3. **Frequent Urination or Changes in Urine Output**
– **What it is**: You might notice more frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia), or a decrease in the amount of urine.
