Medical warnings regarding kidney failure symptoms

Overview

Medical experts have highlighted the difficulty of detecting kidney failure due to its often asymptomatic progression in early stages. Dr. Decsa Medika Hertanto warned that patients in stages 1 through 3 may feel healthy and active even as kidney function declines significantly.

As the condition advances, physical symptoms typically emerge. These include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weakness. More specific physical indicators have also been identified, such as edema in the arms and wrists—characterized by soft, painless swelling—and intense, persistent skin itching or tingling. Medical professionals advise that if these signs occur alongside changes in urine, immediate examination is necessary.
