Chronic Renal Failure\r
Chronic Renal Failure or Chronic Kidney Disease is a gradual continuous functional failure of kidneys over a number of months or years. It is mainly caused due to the complication of a serious medical condition, but the fall in renal ivity is so gradual that until complete kidney failure, almost no symptoms are seen.\r

Kidneys are equipped with millions of nephrons that continuously filter out and remove waste products and extra fluid from the blood and discharge them as urine. If a nephron is damaged, it cannot function anymore, and so the functioning nephrons carry out all the filtering process. But when the number of damaged nephrons are higher than a normal number, the remaining filters cannot take all the work load; which results into the accumulation of waste products in turn leads to further serious irreversible complications.\r
