Kidneys are vital organs in the human body that play a pivotal role
in overall physical well-being. These bean-shaped, fist-sized organs
carry many bodily functions, including blood purification, flushing out
toxins, regulating fluids and chemicals, controlling blood pressure, and
making red blood cells.
When these organs lose their ability to filter the blood of its
impurities and toxins, it severely affects the health, disturbing the
entire quality of life. Many health conditions can affect the kidneys.
From the most complained kidney stones to life-threatening kidney
failure, renal organs need excellent medical care, supported by advanced
