Detailed explanation-1: -Most kidney diseases attack the nephrons, causing them to lose their filtering capacity. Damage to the nephrons may happen quickly, often as the result of injury or poisoning. But most kidney diseases destroy the nephrons slowly and silently. Only after years or even decades will the damage become apparent.
Detailed explanation-2: -When the nephrons don’t get enough blood they are severely damaged. As a result, the blood can’t pass through the kidneys and the nephrons can’t filter wastes from the blood, or perform their other functions. Damage to the nephrons from unused glucose in the blood is called diabetic nephropathy.
Detailed explanation-3: -You will feel tired and weak because your body needs clean blood to function properly. Untreated uremia may lead to seizures or coma and will ultimately result in death. If your kidneys stop working completely, you will need to undergo dialysis or kidney transplant.
Detailed explanation-4: -Acute kidney failure may lead to a buildup of fluid in your lungs, which can cause shortness of breath. Chest pain. If the lining that covers your heart (pericardium) becomes inflamed, you may experience chest pain. Muscle weakness.
