6. Can you name the most common type of kidney disease?

The kidneys are a pair of fist-sized organs located at the bottom of the rib cage. There is one kidney on each side of the spine. The most common form of kidney disease is chronic kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition that doesn’t improve over time. It’s commonly caused by high blood pressure. Chronic kidney disease is the most common type of kidney disease and occurs when the kidneys are damaged or are not functioning as well for 3 months or longer. Chronic kidney disease worsens or progresses over time. There are 5 stages of chronic kidney disease, with the most severe being end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

7. What might headaches from secondary hypertension and puffy eyes due to edema from leaky capillaries indicates?

Glomerulonephritis (GN) is inflammation of the glomeruli, which are structures in your kidneys that are made up of tiny blood vessels. These knots of vessels help filter your blood and remove excess fluids. If your glomeruli are damaged, your kidneys will stop working properly, and you can go into kidney failure.

Symptoms you may experience depend on what form of GN you have as well as how severe it is.

Acute GN
Early symptoms of acute GN include:

• puffiness in your face
• urinating less often
• blood in your urine, which turns your urine a dark rust color
• extra fluid in your lungs, causing coughing
• high blood pressure

Chronic GN
The chronic form of GN can creep up without any symptoms. There may be slow development of symptoms similar to the acute form. Some symptoms include:

• blood or excess protein in your urine, which may be microscopic and show up in urine tests
• high blood pressure
• swelling in your ankles and face
• frequent nighttime urination
• bubbly or foamy urine, from excess protein
• abdominal pain
• frequent nosebleeds

8. What is the meaning of the abbrevation UTI?

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection from microbes. These are organisms that are too small to be seen without a microscope. Most UTIs are caused by bacteria, but some are caused by fungi and in rare cases by viruses. UTIs are among the most common infections in humans. A UTI can happen anywhere in your urinary tract. Your urinary tract is made up of your kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Most UTIs only involve the urethra and bladder, in the lower tract. However, UTIs can involve the ureters and kidneys, in the upper tract. Although upper tract UTIs are more rare than lower tract UTIs, they’re also usually more severe.
