Legs
Hands

Abdomen

Severe pain below the ribcage or tenderness in the back could be related to untreated urinary tract infections or kidney stones.

Kidney disease can cause a loss of appetite and weight due to waste buildup in the blood. You may feel full even when you haven’t eaten much.

Waste accumulation in the bloodstream often causes nausea or vomiting, especially in the morning or after meals.

People with kidney disease frequently report trouble sleeping due to:

8. Metallic Taste in the Mouth
A persistent metallic taste is a common symptom of uremia, caused by the buildup of waste products in the blood.
