FAQ's Related to Nephrologist

A nephrologist specialises in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of kidney diseases, electrolyte imbalances, hypertension, and other conditions that affect kidney function. They also provide care for patients requiring dialysis and kidney replacement therapy.

Common conditions include chronic kidney disease (CKD), acute kidney injury (AKI), diabetic kidney disease, hypertension, proteinuria, haematuria, electrolyte disorders, kidney failure, and complications requiring haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.

You should consult a Nephrologist if you have persistent high blood pressure, abnormal kidney function tests, swelling of the legs or face, blood or protein in the urine, recurrent kidney stones, or diabetes with signs of kidney damage.

Chronic Kidney Disease is a progressive condition in which the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter waste products and excess fluids from the blood. Early detection and appropriate treatment can help slow its progression and reduce complications.

Diagnosis may involve blood tests to assess kidney function, urine analysis, imaging studies such as ultrasound or CT scans, blood pressure evaluation, and, in some cases, a kidney biopsy to determine the underlying cause.
