HYPERTENSION
Hypertension remains a Big Kidney destroyer
For some reasons lot of young people don't know their blood pressure.
People think it's for the old
Hypertension with time damages & changes the kidneys which pretty much can be irreversible.
Also effect on other organs

DIABETES
Awareness around Diabetes has skyrocketed in recent times
We now know that anyone can have Diabetes.
DIABETES also is able to damage the kidneys when the sugar is uncontrolled
It's not surprising to find Diabetes and Hypertension occuring together
Have you checked

USE OF NSAIDS like Diclofenac, Felvin
I noticed with ladies using for Menstrual cramps & Artisans who do heavy work use it to relieve pain
Chronic use is not kidney safe.
Apart from direct damage to the kidney and blood vessels of the kidneys , they affect a lot of organs.

Use of AGBO and Herbal concotions
Always war when you mention Agbo.
truth is street side Agbo has many deadly substances in them
We released an expose on some constituent we found in some.
Agbo remains one of the cheapest things available to fry the kidneys in a jiffy .

BLEACHING CREAMS
surprisingly Bleaching creams have become a must have beauty product
A lot of Bleaching creams contains constituents that are absorbed into the blood and go straight to the kidneys
Noticed this one as a big cause in ladies and some men who embraced bleaching

Alcohol and Smoking
There has long term association between alcohol and smoking as they both have damaging effects on the kidneys
Apart from Alcohol & smoking being linked to a lot of Cancers
A lot of young people take lot of Alcohol and a shocker was HEROIN.
Yes.that Heroin

I noticed that people who took both of them really had bad levels of kidney damage because a lot of times other organs are also affected
Like the Heart, Liver and many more.
Sadly some of them don't do well and die
Heroin is a drug that damages the kidney in a unique way

Chronic glomerulonephritis
I won't say much about this because it is very medical .
A lot of times we usually don't know why people have this
People that had it were usually Younger ( some less than 20 years old) and had very high Blood pressures.

Polycystic kidney disease
A condition where swellings (cysts) are found in the kidneys . It can affect kidney function
It was not as common as the rest though.
Many of them were found when the patients went for routine tests and later were then referred.

Some of them actually had family members that also had cyst in their kidneys.
A lot of them actually did well.
Some had cysts in organs like liver , brain etc
Also a case of aneurysm (swelling) in the brain causing Stroke

In a number of people with kidney diseases we really didn't know what caused it
This accounted for a few. I guess the limitations of diagnosis is affected by advanced testing available
Perhaps if they were abroad , more sophisticated tests could find something
