What Is Fibromuscular Dysplasia?
4. Kidneys
The renal arteries help to ensure that our kidneys are fed with a constant supply of fresh blood. This is important because it helps ensure that kidneys get the oxygen and nutrition that they need. It also ensures that the kidneys can perform their main role in filtering toxins and pathogens from our blood.
If the renal arteries are affected, it can cause the patient to develop a high blood pressure, and damage to the kidney’s tissues can occur. In some cases, it can even result in chronic kidney failure. Problems with the kidneys can be dangerous so it is something that should be checked out.
