The two bean-shaped organs, located just below the rib cage, are meant to filter wastes from our blood. Their job is to filter 200 quarts of blood a day, resulting in filtering out about 2 quarts of waste in the form of extra water, that eventually passes out in the form of urine from our body.
Now, what happens if your kidneys stop working or begins working abnormally?
Our body begins filling in extra water, which results in swollen body parts, and that may lead to another organ failure. This condition is termed as Uraemia and Dialysis come out as the only solution to the problem.
