renal impairment

Renal impairment refers to reduced kidney function, where the kidneys are less effective at filtering waste and excess fluids from the blood. This can result from conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, infections, or other health issues. When the kidneys don’t work properly, waste builds up in the body, which can cause symptoms like swelling, fatigue, and changes in urination. If left untreated, severe impairment can lead to kidney failure, requiring dialysis or a transplant. Early detection and management are essential to prevent further damage and maintain overall health.
