Diabetic Kidney Disease is a condition where long term diabetes damages the kidneys. High blood sugar levels affect the filtering units of the kidneys and reduce their function over time. Early detection and proper control of diabetes can help slow progression and protect kidney health.
The kidneys filter waste and excess fluids from the blood. In people with diabetes, high blood sugar can damage the small blood vessels in the kidneys, affecting their ability to function properly.
This condition develops gradually and may not show symptoms in the early stages. Many patients are diagnosed during routine health checkups.
