Uremia is a common disease which can seriously affect human’s health. In
daily life, many people pay less attention to the aggravation of renal
functions, which always leads to Uremia and more difficult treatments. And some
other people are too confident in their health, neglect their physical
conditions and finally suffer from Uremia. All of these prove that people are
ignorant of the symptoms of early Uremia and as a result, they can not receive
early diagnosis and relevant treatments. Then, what are the symptoms of early
Uremia?
1. Sleepiness and fatigue. Both of them may be the earliest manifestations
while patients always neglect them, because there are many factors that can lead
to sleepiness and fatigue.
2. Pale face. It is caused by anemia and its occurrence and development is
very slow, as a result, people can not find any sharp difference in a short
period of time.
3. Edema. It is an obvious symptom due to that the kidney fails to clear away
the redundant water and make them detained in tissue space. In the early stage,
edema only presents in ankle and eyelid and it can disappear after rests. If
edema develops into a persistent and systemic degree, the illness conditions are
severe.
4. Urine volume shows changes. Due to the decreased renal filtration
function, the urine volume of a part of patients will drop. Even though the
urine volume keeps normal, because urine expels fewer toxins and its quality
declines and the redundant wastes can not be excreted out of the body, thus
normal urine volume can not exactly estimate renal funtions.
5. High blood pressure. Kidney can expel sodium and water, and when it gets
damaged, there will be the retention of sodium and water in the body. Meanwhile,
kidney will secret some substances with can drive blood pressure up. Therefore,
Uremia patients will show various degrees of high blood pressure in the early
stage. If patients have high blood pressure together with nose or gingival
bleedings due to different blood clotting mechanism, patients should be highly
alert.
6. Poor appetite. The retention of urinary toxins can affect digestive
functions and lead to poor appetite. Most people take it for granted without
enough attention. If the disease develops, there will be abdominal discomfort,
nausea, vomiting and even increased defecation or mashed feces. At that time,
the illness condition is severe and people have to turn to doctors for help.
The above is the introduction about the symptoms of early Uremia. We should
pay attention to them in daily life and lead a healthy life.
