Risk Factors
Kidney diseases can be influenced by various risk factors. These factors can significantly impact a person’s kidney health and overall well-being. Some of the risk factors associated with nephrology include
Chronic conditions
Diabetes, hypertension, and autoimmune disorders increase the risk of kidney disease.
Obesity
Excess weight puts strain on the kidneys and raises the likelihood of developing kidney problems.
Medications
Certain medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), can harm the kidneys if used excessively.
Smoking
Tobacco use damages blood vessels and reduces kidney function.
Family history
A family history of kidney disease increases the chances of developing similar conditions.
Dehydration
Inadequate fluid intake can lead to kidney damage and the formation of kidney stones.
Urinary tract infections
Frequent or poorly treated urinary tract infections can affect kidney function.
Age
Kidney function naturally declines with age, making older individuals more susceptible to kidney issues.
Regular check-ups and screenings with a nephrologist are essential for early detection and timely intervention.
Treatment
Treatment in nephrology often involves a combination of medical interventions, lifestyle modifications, and close monitoring to ensure optimal kidney function. Here are some key aspects of treatment involved in nephrology:
Nephrologists prescribe medications to manage various kidney-related conditions, including hypertension, electrolyte imbalances, and kidney stone formation.
