Chronic kidney disease
While chronic kidney disease (CKD) may not cause any symptoms early on, you might get tested for it if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, or a family history of kidney issues. Eventually, you may experience swelling in your legs, feet, and face, along with dry skin, increased or decreased urine production, nausea, and trouble concentrating.
The issue with CKD is possible over-diagnosis, due to new guidelines that were designed for early intervention. Actually, many people’s condition never progresses to full-fledged, symptomatic kidney disease—meaning they should never have had that early diagnosis to begin with. While not going into kidney failure is a good thing, the diagnosis itself may lead to unnecessary stress, tests, and treatments.
