5 – Puffy Eyes:
Experiencing persistent puffiness around your eyes can be a sign of kidney disease, this puffiness around your eyes can be due to the fact that your kidneys are leaking a large amount of protein in the urine, rather than keeping it in the body. Protein in the urine is an early sign that the kidneys’ filters have been damaged. Failing kidneys don’t remove extra fluid, which builds up in your body causing swelling in the face.
6 – Swelling in Ankles & Feet:
Having your ankles and feet swollen is a sign that there is something wrong with your kidney. Decreased kidney function can lead to sodium retention which causes swelling in your feet and ankles. Swelling in the lower extremities can also be a sign of heart disease, liver disease and chronic leg vein problems.
