Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a long - term condition characterized by the gradual loss of kidney function over time. The kidneys, responsible for filtering waste, excess fluids, and regulating electrolytes in the body, become damaged, often due to factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, glomerulonephritis, or genetic disorders. As CKD progresses, symptoms may include fatigue, swelling, changes in urination patterns, and high blood pressure. In advanced stages, it can lead to kidney failure, requiring treatments such as dialysis or a kidney transplant. Early detection through regular screenings and management of risk factors are crucial to slow disease progression and improve patients' quality of life.
