veseszövetkárosodás

Veseszövetkárosodás refers to damage to the tissue of the kidneys. This damage can arise from a variety of causes, including infections, autoimmune diseases, certain medications, high blood pressure, and diabetes. When kidney tissue is damaged, the kidneys' ability to filter waste products from the blood and regulate bodily fluids can be impaired.

The symptoms of veseszövetkárosodás can vary depending on the extent and cause of the damage. In early stages, there may be no noticeable symptoms. As the damage progresses, individuals might experience fatigue, swelling in the legs and ankles, changes in urination frequency, nausea, and a loss of appetite. High blood pressure can also be a sign or a contributing factor.

Diagnosis typically involves blood tests to measure kidney function, such as creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels, and urine tests to detect protein or blood. Imaging studies like ultrasounds may also be used. Treatment strategies depend on the underlying cause and aim to slow the progression of kidney damage, manage symptoms, and prevent complications. This can include lifestyle changes, medications to control blood pressure and diabetes, and in severe cases, dialysis or a kidney transplant.
