10 Early Symptoms of Kidney Failure

If you're at risk for kidney disease due to high blood pressure, diabetes, a family history of kidney failure, or if you're over age 60, it's important to get tested every year. Kidney problems often develop silently, and early detection can prevent serious complications.

1. Muscle Cramps

Electrolyte imbalances caused by reduced kidney function can lead to muscle cramps. Low calcium levels and poorly controlled phosphorus are common contributors.

2. Poor Appetite

A buildup of toxins in the body due to impaired kidney function can reduce appetite. While this is a general symptom, it is common in people with kidney issues.

3. Swollen Ankles and Feet

When the kidneys cannot remove excess sodium, fluid builds up in the body, causing swelling in the feet and ankles. This can also be a sign of heart disease or liver problems.

4. Persistent Puffiness Around the Eyes

Protein leaking into the urine is an early sign of kidney damage. Puffiness around the eyes may indicate that your kidneys are allowing too much protein to escape.

5. Foamy Urine

Excessive bubbles in the urine — especially if you need to flush several times — can indicate protein in the urine. This foam resembles the bubbles seen when scrambling eggs because both contain similar proteins.

6. Blood in the Urine

Healthy kidneys keep blood cells inside the body while filtering waste. When the kidney filters are damaged, blood can leak into the urine. This may also indicate tumors, kidney stones, or infections.

7. Frequent Urination

Needing to urinate more often, especially at night, can be a sign of kidney disease. Damaged kidney filters can increase the urge to urinate. This may also be caused by urinary infections or an enlarged prostate in men.

8. Dry and Itchy Skin

Healthy kidneys balance minerals and nutrients in the blood. When they fail, mineral imbalances can cause dry, itchy skin — a common sign of advanced kidney disease.

9. Trouble Sleeping

When kidneys fail to filter properly, toxins remain in the bloodstream instead of leaving through urine. This buildup can make it difficult to sleep. Sleep apnea is also more common in people with kidney disease.

10. Low Energy or Difficulty Concentrating

Reduced kidney function leads to toxin buildup, causing fatigue, weakness, and difficulty focusing. Kidney disease can also cause anemia, which contributes to low energy levels.

Final Thoughts

Kidney failure often develops quietly, but early symptoms can help you catch the problem before it becomes severe. If you notice any of these signs, consult a healthcare professional for proper testing and treatment.
