Introduction

The kidneys, the most important excretory organ of the body, help to clean the blood by removing extra water, minerals, and wastes. In addition, they also make hormones that keep your bones strong and blood clean.

When the kidneys stop working, problems can arise. Such problems include anemia and disorders that affect the skin, bones, and nerves.

Conditions that are commonly caused by kidney failure include:

 Extreme tiredness

 Bone problems

 Itching (pruritus)

 Joint problems

In addition, totally damaged kidneys result in build up of harmful wastes in the body, rise in blood pressure, causes the body to retain excess fluid and not make enough red blood cells. Treatment is necessary to replace the work of the failed kidneys.
