8. Having dry and itchy skin
Healthy kidneys do an incredible job by eliminating waste and surplus fluid from the circulation, assisting in producing red blood cells, and ensuring that your body has the correct quantity of minerals. Itchy and dry skin indicates a failure of the kidneys to maintain the proper mineral and nutritional balance, leading to bone and renal disease.
Warning: Try to remain hydrated if you have dry, itchy skin. Remember to ask your doctor before using any itching medicine. Certain drugs contain components that may further impair your renal function.
