1 00:00:00,00 --> 00:00:05,200 Friends it is considered normal having itching on the different parts of the body. 2 00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:10,100 But do you know that continuous and extreme skin irritation can be a 3 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:15,000 sign of kidney failure. Yes, you heard it right! 4 00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:19,900 If your skin is continuously itching and there are some other symptoms 5 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,800 prevailing in the body, then this is quite possible that your kidneys 6 00:00:24,900 --> 00:00:29,700 are damaging. Skin itching during kidney disease is 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:34,600 called pruritus. This is common but problematic 8 00:00:34,700 --> 00:00:39,500 symptom that occurs in a CKD patient. 9 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,400 Lately, in a research it is found that in almost 40% of CKD patients 10 00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:49,300 have this symptom and so the life of the patients gets disturbed. 11 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,200 They cannot sleep properly and become avictim of depression. Now, how 12 00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:59,100 extremely you are suffering from this is dependent on the stage of CKD and 13 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,000 other factors also come in the role which tells how extreme your skin itching would be. 14 00:01:04,100 --> 00:01:08,900 But it mostly affects you at night. During skin itching 15 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,800 you should take care of the stretch marks you may develop because of continuous skin scratch. 16 00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:18,700 and you are not facing any problem in sleeping or 17 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,600 feeling irritated because of itching. Because, if any of these three things 18 00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:28,500 occur this may worsen your situation and destroy your mental peace. But 19 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,400 why does this happen? The main work of the kidneys is to eliminate toxic materials 20 00:01:33,500 --> 00:01:38,300 and waste from your body. These toxins are 21 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,200 filterd from the body along with the urine. But when the kidneys fail 22 00:01:43,300 --> 00:01:48,100 various types of chemicals and waste start building up inside the blood. These 23 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,000 chemicals and toxins in the blood may result in skin itching 24 00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:57,900 This itching can occur in any part of your body, including, hands, feet, and 25 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,800 face and other body parts. In the body of such patients 26 00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:07,700 the phosphorus level starts accumulating and this phosphorus is 27 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,600 the only culprit behind skin irritation. Besides, because of a damaged kidney 28 00:02:12,700 --> 00:02:17,500 the urea level also increases and this urea merges with your skin 29 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,400 cause types of crystals that create itching in you. 30 00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:27,300 If you are in the advanced stages of kidney failure, then this urea eliminates from the body in the form of sweat 31 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,200 and stays on your skin. When this happens 32 00:02:32,300 --> 00:02:37,100 the skin appears dry and it is obvious that a dry skin 33 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,000 causes itching. But the thing to take care of is that, you may 34 00:02:42,100 --> 00:02:46,900 fight with skin itching with ease. The first thing that you have to do is apply 35 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,800 moisturizer on your skin. You can buy different types of moisturizer from the market 36 00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:56,700 and apply it after taking a bath. Lesser your skin 37 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,600 is dry, you will have reduced urge to skin itching. 38 00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:06,500 You should also drink water in moderation so that your skin remains hydrated. 39 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,400 but you should also keep in mind that not to over drink the required limit. 40 00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:16,300 you should only consume foods and vegetables that have loo potassium in them. 41 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,200 phosphorus consumption is also regulated during kidney disease. 42 00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:26,100 Mostly it happens that to reduce itching, whatever you do 43 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:31,000 or adopt, worsens your kidney problems.
