Kidney Failure
Kidney failure is the condition where kidneys lose their ability to filter waste from the blood effectively. It can be acute or chronic, often resulting from high blood pressure, diabetes, or severe dehydration. Symptoms typically include fatigue, shortness of breath, and swelling. Treatment involves dialysis or kidney transplant.
