What can you do if your kidney fails?

People who have kidney failure, which is when 90% or more of the kidneys do not work, must be on dialysis. When kidneys fail the body cant cleanse the body of waste. The persons blood will become toxic and the person will die without dialysis or a kidney transplant. That's just with kidney failure. Of course you can live with only one kidney.

Why does kidney and liver failure often cause severe swelling and bloating?

Kidneys and the liver filter waste liquids from the body. If the body doesn't eliminate these from the blood stream thru urination then the body's blood supply will become toxic.

With kidney failure, a mechanical solution exists in the form of an artificial kidney to remove the waste, it is called dialysis. Dialysis can be performed at home or at a medical site. An artificial liver does not exist and only a liver transplant must be preformed to save the body. Kidneys can also be transplanted!
