The Kidney is an important part of the body, which plays an important role in filtering blood, removing toxic elements, and maintaining mineral balance. But due to changing lifestyles, wrong eating habits, and excessive consumption of medicines, kidney-related problems are increasing rapidly. Experts say that most people ignore the early symptoms of kidney damage, due to which timely treatment is not done and the disease takes a serious form.

5 important signs of kidney damage are visible as soon as you wake up in the morning

1. Swelling in the face and eyes
Swelling in the face, especially under the eyes, as soon as you wake up in the morning, can be a sign of the kidneys not functioning properly. When the kidneys are unable to remove excess fluid from the body, it appears in the form of swelling.

2. Morning fatigue and weakness
- Despite having a good sleep, if a person feels tired and weak as soon as he wake up in the morning, it indicates an increase in toxins in the body. This condition can arise due to kidney failure.

3. Foamy urine
If excessive foam is seen in the first urine of the morning and it does not go away quickly, then it can be a sign of protein leakage, which is an early symptom of kidney damage.

4. Swelling in the feet and ankles
Swelling in the feet and ankles in the morning is a sign that the kidneys are not able to remove sodium and water properly. This is also a symptom of impaired kidney function.

5. Headaches and lack of focus
When kidneys fail, toxins accumulate in the blood, which affects blood circulation to the brain. This leads to headaches, irritability, and lack of focus.

When to contact a doctor?
If these symptoms persist for one to two weeks, you should immediately contact a doctor. Kidney problems can be identified early through blood and urine tests.

Preventive measures:
Drink plenty of water and keep the body hydrated

Avoid excess salt and processed foods

Control blood pressure and sugar level

Avoid unnecessary medicines, especially painkillers and antibiotics

Get regular health checkups
