My Kidneys Fails.

Hi folks have you ever experience having a problem regarding your kidneys. In this article I'll just share my experience regarding kidney problems and this may also serve as a reminder to everybody that you should be careful on what you put inside your body because at the end you'll be the one who will suffer the consequences.

First let's talk about our kidneys.

Kidneys is one of the most important organs in our body. It is a pair of bean shaped organ that is located behind our belly. It's size is 4 to 5 inches long and it's size may be compared to your fist.

This organ in our body is the one who is responsible when it comes to filtering our bloods that is circulating all around our body. It's awesome right, a bussy buddy who is working hard all day just to make sure that our blood is in good condition. It also control the fluid balance in our body and responsible also in keeping the right levels of electrolytes in our body.

Whatever passes through our kidneys are being filtered by million tiny filters called nephrons. All the waste filtered here are turned into urine which we excrete out from our body when we pee.

All of that functions are being executed by these cute bean shaped organ in our body.

So how can we maintain these kidneys in a good condition most of the times. We all learned in our elementary days that water is essential to our kidneys and we have been taught to drink a lot of water not only to make our kidneys in good shape but also to keep the other organs in our body to function properly. Also we have been taught to take cautions on what we put inside our body especially on what we drink.

In that part I've failed to follow that lessons and I've suffered the consequences. When I was still young around the ages of 9-13, I love to drink softdrinks and salty foods, junk doods. I'm not fond of drinking a lot of water back then and that mistake made my kidneys to fail and made me to suffer to what we called Kidney stones and UTI( Urinary track infection)

Kidney stones are like small pebbles that can form in inside your kidneys. They are usually made from salt and minerals. These small stones are forming when our body has too much minerals and lack of fluids especially water.

Symptoms of this one might not show unless the stones will move around your kidneys. As for me the symptoms have shown and I'm in a severe pain. Intense pain in my back, below my ribs, in my lower abdomen. I felt pain when I pee, the burning feeling and my pee is color yellowish to brownish. I felt that I need to pee all the time but when I'm about to pee there's no pee coming out. I had high fever. I'm not able to sleep because of the pain in my back.

I think that it's just a normal pain but when I'm not able to handle it anymore, we went to a doctor and found out that I had kidney stones. The doctor conducted some examinations of my blood and urine. She also recommend me to have an ultrasound of my kidneys. I had my ultrasound the next day and it's my first time to experienced it. When I'm having the ultrasound I'm praying that it's not that serious.

We came back to the doctor and gave her the result and thanks God that it's nothing serious. The stones are not visible at all and it can be cure with antibiotics and by drinking a lot of water.She also lectured me to eat food containing calcium because lack of calcium is also one factor in developing kidney stones.

Since then I drink a lot of water, avoided junk foods and sofdrinks. As simple as drinking a lot of water we can prevent this kind of conditions that can put us into a lot of pain and endanger our kidneys.

Here are the benefits of drinking water.

👉Water is essential to our Kidneys and all our organs in our body.

So you see by only drinking a lot of water it have so many benefits already. Folks, don't ever ever forget this important thing. It can save your life just like on how it save my kidneys.

So that's it my friends.Hope this article remind you to take care of your health because it's our hidden wealth.😊
