4 Commonly Ignored Signs That Your Kidneys Are Failing

Although they do not get much credit, kidneys are some of the most heroic organs in your body.

They are needed in order to preform essential roles including controlling the production of red blood cells, producing vitamin D, and keeping your blood pressure regulated.

Additionally, symptoms of kidney damage are often stealth, and unnoticeable, which is why over 2 million Americans have some degree of kidney failure, and 90 percent of them do not know.

Here are some symptoms that should help you easier identify kidney failure.

1. Increasing blood pressure.

This could be the beginning of a dangerous cycle because once there has been damage done to your kidneys, and they begin to fail they are unable to properly control your blood pressure.
