What are two cause of kidney damage?

High blood pressure and diabetes are the two most common causes of kidney failure. They can also become damaged from physical injury, diseases, or other disorders.

kidney.org - Kidney failure (ESRD) - Symptoms, stages, & treatment

Kidney failure does not happen overnight. It is the result of a gradual loss of kidney function. Some people do not even know they have kidney disease until their kidneys fail. Why not? Because people with early kidney disease may not have any symptoms. Symptoms usually show up later in the progression of the disease and may include:

trouble sleeping

poor appetite

weakness

tiredness

itching

weight loss

muscle cramps (especially in the legs)

swelling of your feet or ankles

anemia (a low blood count)

trouble sleeping

Healthy kidneys remove wastes and extra fluid from your blood. But when your kidneys fail, wastes and excess fluid can build up in your blood and make you feel sick. Once you begin treatment for kidney failure, your symptoms will improve, and you will start to feel much better.
