Kidney disease or also known as kidney problem is a disease that involves the human kidney. If it is not detected early, it can get worse over time and lead to kidney failure.
It is said that 15% of Malaysians suffer from chronic kidney disease at various levels.
According to the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH), most of them only know that they have the disease when they are at a serious stage because there are no symptoms at an early stage.
To avoid this, the MOH has listed 10 signs of kidney problems.
Here are the signs:
1) Swelling around the eyes especially in the morning
