WHAT TO LEARN ABOUT KIDNEY HEALTH?
Turkey Medicals member and Medicalpark hospital Nephrologist who says that the risk of developing kidney disease may be excessive in older people and some breeds, and explained the mistake that we all made that caused kidney failure.
As a result of the metabolism of cells, waste products appear and accumulate in the event that the water balance is disturbed, the person experiences chronic kidney disease, said Hospital Nephrologist Doctor, he noted that chronic kidney disease usually progresses slowly over time, but this progress varies from person to person. Noting that there may be an increased risk of developing kidney disease, especially in people of his age and some races, the doctor made important warnings to prevent this situation.
A nephrologist who says that kidney disease usually does not give specific signs and symptoms in the early stages is Doctor “kidney function is often 15% if it drops below a weakness, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, itching, and unfortunately the symptoms occur such as kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, other organs, such as blood and skin in contact with the work due to the disease of these organs are affected,” he said.
Chronic diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure can lead to heart failure, kidney disease underlines the confidence that, “people in the family if you have kidney disease, dialysis or received a kidney transplant at risk of developing kidney disease, may be higher than people without such a history. NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) and paracetamol group drugs, known as painkillers and antipyretics, are widely and uncontrollably used today. 1 in 3 of the patients use these drugs for complaints such as headache, joint pain, as well as weakness, insomnia,” he said.

NEPHROLOGIST EXPLAINED THE EFFECTS OF THE DRUGS ON THE KIDNEYS AS FOLLOWS
“In 1953, the use of long and high doses of NSAIDs was shown to cause chronic interstitial nephritis (KIN). NSAIDs have too many known side effects, such as acute and Chronic Renal Failure, hypertension, edema, electrolyte balance disorders, an increase in calcium and potassium, a decrease in the amount of salt. Side effects are rarely observed in those taking paracetamol: in these cases, liver and kidney failure associated with the use of high doses of paracetamol was observed. Acute and chronic kidney damage may occur when using NSAIDs. Unfortunately, too short and too little use of NSAIDs can lead to severe kidney failure even in healthy people.”
Emphasizing that Acute Kidney Damage that develops when using NSAIDs is not dependent on the dose of the drug, nephrologist said, “It can lead the patient to hemodialysis treatment by disrupting renal blood supply and causing serious damage to renal duct cells. They can again damage the kidney cells by creating a cellular reaction that resembles an allergic reaction. They can damage the renal filters (glomeruli), leading to protein leakage in the urine and glomerulonephritis disease. Acute Kidney Damage can be completely cured with timely and proper treatment, or it can turn into a chronic process and progress to chronic kidney failure. Damage that is detected in a timely manner is treated with fluid therapy and cortisone,” he said.
“A person’s thirst is old age, kidney failure that is present, heart failure use together with other drugs high doses and prolonged use of NSAIDs such as blood pressure medications, antibiotics leads to Analgesic Nephropathy, especially in the treatment of rheumatic diseases, QUININE or other name. The use of 2-3 kilograms of the drug in two to five years leads to permanent kidney damage. There is no special treatment in this case the damage is permanent and gradually progresses to chronic renal failure.
As a result, the side effects of painkillers can lead to very serious kidney failure, and this damage can be permanent. These drugs should always be taken under the advice and control of a doctor. Another mind to reduce kidney damage if it does not exist during NSAID use (such as heart failure) it is recommended to use more than two liters of water per day, intermittent in the blood, kidney function tests (urea, creatinine, electrolytes, etc.) can be made to control. Although paracetamol is considered more reliable, caution should be exercised in terms of side effects,” he warned.
A nephrologist who says that the last stage of chronic kidney disease, called burrito disease, is a period that causes permanent damage to a person and has a very low chance of restoring the function of their kidneys, Dr. “Patients with this condition are helped to live a better quality of life by kidney transplantation, dialysis support treatment, and reduce your other health problems,” nephrologist said about the process of the disease. There are two types of dialysis treatment applied to the patient in this process.
In hemodialysis, the patient’s blood is passed through a machine and waste products and excess fluid are removed from the body. Hemodialysis is performed 2-3 days a week 4 hours a day at the center or dialysis is performed all night at home in some patients. Peritoneal dialysis treatment, on the other hand, the patient delivers dialysis fluid to his stomach through a tube, this dialysis fluid is then discharged from the body along with waste materials. This dialysis is performed every other day. It performs cleaning during the day or during sleep at night. The treatment that brings the patient back to full health is a kidney transplant in Antalya Turkey,” was said.
