The kidneys are located on both sides of the spine, close to the posterior abdominal wall, and behind the peritoneum. The upper end of the left kidney is flat at the lower edge of the 11th thoracic vertebra, and the lower end is flat at the lower edge of the 2nd lumbar vertebra. The right kidney is half a vertebra lower than the left kidney. The 12th rib on the left slants over the middle behind the left kidney, and the 12th rib on the right slants over the upper behind the right kidney. It has the function of clearing metabolic products and certain wastes and poisons in the body. If kidney problems occur, there are several symptoms:
1. The pupil part of the eye that sees is called "vision", which is directly controlled by the kidneys. If there is a problem with the kidneys, the kidneys cannot deliver kidney water to the eyes. The eyes may feel dry, sour, astringent, and gradually blurred vision. In severe cases, dark shadows may appear, called "flying mosquito syndrome". Over time, the pressure will increase, resulting in "glaucoma.".
2. There are kidney problems, and both sides of the thighs can be sour, soft, and weak, often itching. "The condition of urination is not good, frequent urination, and over time the cells slowly necrosis, eventually leading to urinary incontinence.".
3. When you wake up in the morning, your heels will feel uncomfortable because when you rest, your blood is in the liver, and your kidneys will temporarily become ischemic. When you wake up, you must send blood to the whole body. Due to poor kidneys, weak qi, and slow flow of blood, blood loss in your joints will naturally stiffen. When you exercise, your blood circulation to the joints will be relaxed.
4. "If you want to take a deep breath, you always feel that there is not enough air, and natural respiration will be faster. If you breathe briefly, the nasal cavity will become ischemic. Due to the ischemia, the resistance of the mucous membrane in the nasal cavity will be reduced, and the dust in the air will damage it. If it is damaged, of course, it will become sensitive. If the weather is humid and changing, it can not withstand it, and it will occur, known as allergic rhinitis.".
5. "A person who is alive will speak, and speaking consumes energy. If his kidneys are weak and his energy is too weak, he will not want to speak if he consumes his energy again. If he cannot stop speaking due to work, his voice will not come out and he will become hoarse.".
6. Hands and feet start to get cold, especially in winter. "Over time, sitting, standing, and walking can definitely cause nerve damage. It's not easy to fall asleep at night, and when you finally fall asleep, a little noise can wake you up. Even if you fall asleep, you're dreaming all night, just like not sleeping, and you're tired every day.".
To protect the kidney, the following points should be achieved:
1. Don't overeat and eat too much protein and salt. It can increase the burden on the kidneys. In addition, sports drinks contain additional electrolytes and salts, and people with kidney disease should be careful with such drinks.
2. Proper drinking water does not hold up urine retention in the bladder, just as bacteria are easy to reproduce after the sewer is blocked, and bacteria will infect the kidney through the ureter.
3. Regularly check, preferably every six months, for urine and blood creatinine and urea nitrogen. Women's kidney burden increases during pregnancy. Renal function should be monitored. To avoid becoming uremic due to toxemia during pregnancy.
