Uremia
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
The nephrologist, along with the internist, is the professional who usually studies uremia, since it reflects poor kidney function. Uremia is the buildup in the blood of waste products that are normally eliminated through the urine.
What it is: a state in which toxins such as urea become concentrated in the body due to advanced kidney failure.
Common manifestations: nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, itching of the skin, and difficulty concentrating.
When should you seek help? These symptoms, especially in those who have known kidney disease, warrant evaluation. In the pediatric age, the pediatric nephrologist and the pediatrician take part. The most prudent step when uremia is suspected is to see a professional who can assess kidney function.
