Chronic kidney disease is a condition where the kidneys progressively deteriorate. If not detected and treated early, it may lead to acute kidney failure, which can be life-threatening.
Acute kidney failure is a condition where the kidneys stop functioning rapidly, resulting in a severe imbalance in the body. It can be found in individuals who are dehydrated from heat stroke, lose weight quickly, or use medications that affect the kidneys. If treated promptly, the kidneys usually return to normal function.
