Where do you itch with kidney disease?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It may affect your whole body or be limited to a specific area â usually your back or arms. Itching tends to affects both sides of the body at the same time and may feel internal, like a crawling feeling just below the skin.

I'm really worried about my father. He's got an electrolyte issue, and his sodium level is at 131, potassium is 4.4, and chloride is at 93. Are these levels something to be concerned about? What steps can we take to address this imbalance?
Your father's electrolyte levels show a slight imbalance. To correct this, I recommend using a medication called "Oral Rehydration Solution" with a dosage of 200-400 ml every 1-2 hours until the electrolyte levels stabilize. This solution will help replenish the sodium, potassium, and chloride levels in his body.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 80 and has been having serious kidney problems. He hasn't had proper meals for about 4 months and is just on liquid foods now, so you can imagine how weak he's become. He's also got high blood pressure and issues with his lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart. He's struggling with passing urine and stools as well. We recently did an endoscopy, and the results weren't good at all; there were some abnormalities. His kidney problem has reached a stage 4. The doctors have given him meds like dytor10, isosorbide mononitrate, cardipin, czopressco 2.5, metaproxl 25, idiot 20, omeprazole, and ciploric 100. But he's not eating anything. I'm hoping you could suggest some diet tips or precautions I could take. Would it be okay to give him something like B protein powder or pomegranate juice?
All these are age related issues which lead to current scenario.its not possible to advice without clinical examination ,dont worry you are in right hands,follow your doctors advice
