How long it takes to die from kidney failure varies from person to person. There are several factors which make a difference in how the condition progresses. Some of those factors are age, general health, and whether or not the person receives dialysis.
Renal failure is a serious medical condition affecting the kidneys. When a person suffers from renal failure, their kidneys are not functioning properly or no longer work at all. Renal failure can be a progressive disease or a temporary one depending on the cause and available treatment options.
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. Say you only had one kidney, that one kidney would have to be over 50% damaged before a person would possibly need to be on dialysis. To simply answer your question, you could have no problems with a damaged kidney, but failed kidneys will cause death.
Kidney failure is an acute stage, and can often be a secondary complication to another condition or situation, such as from a reaction to medication or from dehydration. Chronic kidney disease is a chronic illness. Acute kidney failure has a good chance of being 100% reversible if caught early. Chronic kidney disease is manageable with dialysis, but is not reversible.
No one can say for sure how long a person will live with a certain condition, and a doctor is the best person to ask.
maximum 4 weeks,.
second kidney
Renal failure (although I'm pretty sure kidney failure would suffice). To be honest, as a medical term Kidney Failure is "medical" enough. If you want to be a bit more medical then you would want to say Renal Failure. And then depending on whether it's acute or chronic then you would want to say Acute Renal Failure or Chronic Renal Failure. End stage renal disease (ESRD) is another term. And just in case you're interested, it used to called Renal Insufficiency but that term is not really used anymore.
no
This is a long term condition which people can live with for a number of years. The only way you could 'recover' - i.e. be free of this disease, is to have a kidney transplant which may fail and requires taking 'anti-rejection' drugs for the rest of your life. The short answer is yes but only if you're lucky enough to get a transplant!
A person without kidneys that is not on dialysis may only live from a few days to several weeks before dying.
There are only 2: 1) Dialysis - either hemodialysis or pertitoneal. 2) Kidney Transplant
Yes it is harder on The body but it is easily possible.
