A Nephrologist is a specialist who diagnoses and treats kidney diseases, kidney-related disorders, and conditions affecting kidney function.
You should consult a Nephrologist if you have kidney disease, high blood pressure, abnormal kidney function tests, kidney stones, swelling, or urinary abnormalities.
Nephrologists treat chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney failure, kidney infections, electrolyte imbalances, high blood pressure, and other kidney-related conditions.
Common symptoms include swelling in the legs or face, fatigue, changes in urination, blood in urine, high blood pressure, nausea, and loss of appetite.

A Nephrologist may recommend blood tests, urine tests, kidney function tests, ultrasound scans, and other diagnostic investigations.
Dialysis is a medical treatment that helps remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood when the kidneys are no longer functioning properly.
