Main reasons for kidney disease
Diabetes: The most important cause of kidney disease is diabetes. High blood sugar levels over a long period of time damage the blood vessels in the kidneys.
High Blood Pressure: Irregular blood pressure can put pressure on the delicate filters in the kidneys and impair their function.
Overuse of medications: Taking painkillers and antibiotics for a long time without a doctor’s prescription can seriously affect the kidneys.
Lifestyle diseases: Obesity, cholesterol, and smoking increase the risk of kidney disease.
Kidney Stones: Continuous stones can block the flow of urine and cause infection, affecting kidney function.
Recurrent infections: Persistent urinary tract infections (UTIs) can affect the kidneys.
Genetic Factors: Inherited kidney diseases such as polycystic kidney disease (PKD).
