4 signs that should not be ignored
The lady, known on TikTok as @enitasugar, opened up about her diagnosis in a video that has since gained attention online, using her personal experience as a platform to educate others on what to watch out for.
In the clip, she listed four symptoms that are often brushed aside but can point to something far more serious.
The first is blood in the urine, a sign that many people attribute to other, less severe causes.
The second is persistent pain in the back or side, which she stressed should not be normalised or endured without medical attention.
The third is unexplained weight loss, and the fourth is constant fatigue that does not improve with rest.
Commenting on the story, Deborah Emeka, a Nigerian nurse, advised people to always check their blood pressure level.
"One serious issue is high BP. People need to really check their blood pressure level regularly. It's one of the causes of kidney failure," she said.
