Kidney and Urinary System Disorders Treatment in Hyderabad

Importance of Healthy Kidney and the Urinary System

Food is our body’s energy source. ‘After our gastrointestinal system plays its part that is our ingested food components are properly digested and essential nutrients are absorbed by our body, waste products are left behind in our blood and bowel’ shares Top Nephrology Doctors in Hyderabad at Sree Nandaka Advanced Surgery Clinic. Next, our kidney and urinary system takes over and functions to get rid of the liquid waste called urea from the body while keeping the potassium and sodium ions as well as water in balance. Urea in the bloodstream travels to the kidneys where blood gets filtered and urine is formed upon mixing of urea with water and other wastes.

The urine then passes from the kidneys to other parts of the urinary system- the renal pelvis, the ureters, the bladder, and the urethra. Ureters are tubes that carry urine to the bladder from the kidneys. The bladder stores urine and contracts to release urine out through the urethra. The urethra is the tube that flushes urine out of the body. Passing urine through different organs of the urinary system is only possible with the help of brain signalling for urinary muscle contraction. Besides blood filtration, kidneys even help in blood pressure regulation, acid-base balancing, and controlling erythropoietin production.

Some Kidney and Urinary System Conditions

Chronic Kidney Disease

This is a condition where the kidney gets damaged and so cannot help in blood filtration, thereby causing waste accumulation within the body and subsequently harm to health. End-stage kidney failure resulting from polycystic kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy requires dialysis.

Kidney Cysts

Diabetic Nephropathy

This is a progressive kidney disease resulting from damage to the kidneys' glomeruli caused by prolonged or untreated diabetes mellitus.
