Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a gradual and progressive loss of kidney function.
It often arises as a complication of other serious health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular disease.
Unlike acute renal failure, which occurs suddenly, CKD develops over an extended period — spanning weeks, months, or even years — as the kidneys gradually lose their ability to function.
Common causes of Chronic Kidney Disease includes- kidney infection, multiple cysts in kidney ,SLE, urinary tract blockages due to frequent infections, stones etc.
Sign and Symptoms of CKD includes increased urination especially at night, foamy and cloudy urine, puffy eyes, hands and feet, fatigue, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, weight loss, bad taste in mouth, muscle cramping etc.
In Ayurveda, CKD is viewed as a result of an imbalance in the vata, pitta & kapha doshas, and impaired agni leading to the accumulation of Ama(toxins) in the body.
Management of CKD focuses on balancing the doshas, detoxifying the body, rejuvenating kidney function, improving quality of life and slowing disease progression.
