Acute Renal Failure Symptoms And Solutions

Fluid Retention

MSN

When kidneys begin to fail, they cannot remove excess fluid and in turn, the body swells in areas such as the ankles, feet, face, legs, and hands. An individual may experience a puffy face, or issues when trying to put their shoes on—these are the types of signs to be aware of. To reduce swelling, most doctors will recommend their patients reduce their consumption of salt. This not only means table salt but all processed foods. It's also been suggested increased magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B6 consumption reduce water retention. These vitamins and minerals can be found in nuts, dark leafy greens, whole grains, bananas, tomatoes, avocados, and walnuts.
