Nephrology
Nephrology is a medical specialty focused on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney diseases. It covers a wide range of kidney-related health issues, including chronic kidney disease, kidney infections, kidney stones, and conditions like hypertension that can affect kidney function. Nephrologists, the doctors specializing in this field, also manage patients requiring dialysis and those who have undergone kidney transplants.
