Due to the fact that kidney disease has multiple types, the symptoms of patients can vary. Kidney diseases can also be further classified based on the characteristics of symptoms and the affected areas, such as glomerulonephritis, chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, interstitial nephritis, and kidney stones, among others. However, when talking about kidney disease symptoms, there are two main types that are most commonly encountered: acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. In particular, chronic kidney disease is considered a silent killer in the medical field because it often does not show symptoms in the early stages but starts exhibiting symptoms when the kidneys have been significantly damaged.
