Early detection of kidney issues through regular check-ups can significantly impact the management and outcome of kidney disease. Blood and urine tests can reveal early signs of kidney damage, such as proteinuria (protein in the urine) or changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), before symptoms become apparent. High-risk individuals, including those with diabetes, hypertension, or a family history of kidney disease, should have their kidney function tested annually. Regular monitoring allows for timely intervention, such as medication adjustments or lifestyle changes, to slow disease progression.
