For patients with CKD and other long-term kidney disorders, we provide advanced medical management, dialysis support, nutritional guidance, and lifestyle counseling. Early intervention helps slow disease progression and improves overall quality of life
Chronic kidney disease is a long-term condition in which the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter waste and excess fluid from the blood. CKD can progress slowly, and some people may have few noticeable symptoms in the early stages.
CKD may cause swelling in the feet or ankles, changes in urination, persistent tiredness, nausea, poor appetite, itching, or difficulty concentrating. However, symptoms may not appear until kidney function has already declined, making regular testing important for people at risk.
Diabetes and high blood pressure are major causes of CKD. Other possible causes include inherited kidney disorders, repeated kidney infections, autoimmune diseases, kidney stones, and conditions that damage the kidneys over time.
Doctors may use blood tests to assess kidney function and urine tests to look for protein or other abnormalities. Blood pressure measurements and imaging may also be used when needed. Regular monitoring helps determine whether kidney function is stable or changing over time.
CKD may not always be reversible, but appropriate treatment can help control the underlying cause and slow further loss of kidney function. Management may include medicines, blood pressure and blood sugar control, dietary and lifestyle measures, and regular nephrology follow-up. Advanced CKD may require planning for treatments such as dialysis or kidney transplantation.
