Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a long-term condition in which the kidneys gradually lose their ability to filter waste and excess fluid from the blood. CKD can develop slowly, and many people may have few noticeable symptoms during the early stages. This makes regular medical evaluation especially important for people with risk factors such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Dr. Himanshu Verma's CKD guide explains that doctors assess kidney function using measures such as GFR (glomerular filtration rate) and urine albumin testing, which can help determine the stage and extent of kidney disease.
