Common Symptoms Of Uremia

Uremia, which means there is urea (a main component of urine) in the blood, is a symptom indicating kidney disease or kidney failure. Normally, the kidneys filter what the body consumes as it passes through, but when they aren't working as well, waste and potentially dangerous substances end up back in the blood. Because uremia occurs as a result of kidney failure, affected individuals need to treat the kidneys to treat the condition effectively. Patients who suffer from uremia generally test positive for creatine, proteins, and other substances directly in the blood. All systems suffer when the blood is contaminated, so most with uremia will exhibit several other symptoms indicative of kidney failure. Unfortunately, those who suffer from the earlier stage of chronic kidney disease are likely not to show symptoms until it's nearly too late.
