Did you know this? 1 in 5 people with high blood pressure already have kidney disease—and most don’t even know it.
The scary part? Kidney disease is often silent at first. You may feel fine while damage is happening in the background. And once kidneys are badly hurt, it’s almost impossible to reverse.
But there are two early warning signs you should never ignore:
1. Foamy or bubbly urine – a clue your body is leaking protein.
2. Swollen ankles, feet, or hands – because your kidneys can’t balance fluids properly.
If you notice these signs and you also have high blood pressure, it’s worth talking to your doctor and asking for a simple urine or blood test. Catching it early can protect your kidneys for years.Your blood pressure doesn’t just affect your heart—it silently affects your kidneys too. Stay alert to these early signals.
