  1. A kidney is a bean-shaped organ that is present in the lower back area. Each kidney is present on each side of the spine. The kidney helps to remove toxins from the body and filter the blood.

The five types of kidney failure include: •Acute prerenal kidney failure: This concerns insufficient blood flow. It can cause acute kidney failure. The kidney becomes unable to filter the toxins from the blood without enough blood flow. This type of kidney failure can be cured once the cause of decreased blood flow is corrected. •Acute intrinsic kidney failure: It is the result of direct trauma to the kidneys. The chances of trauma may occur because of a sudden fall or any major accident. If you will ask, can kidney failure be cured in such a condition? The answer is yes, only after the condition impacting your blood vessels (that have become inflamed) may be corrected. This can often result in a lack of oxygen and an overload of toxins. It is the cause of severe bleeding, shock, and obstruction. •Chronic prerenal kidney failure: This condition takes place when there is not enough blood for the kidneys to filter. This can make the kidneys shrink. Also, the kidneys may lose their ability to filter blood. Under such a condition, kidney failure can be cured only after pursuing a continuous treatment plan. •Chronic intrinsic kidney failure: This condition happens when there is long-term damage to the kidneys due to intrinsic disease. The intrinsic disease may result in direct trauma of the kidney, severe bleeding, or lack of oxygen.

  2. •Chronic post-renal kidney failure: IT takes place due to long-term damage of the urinary tract. It most often prevents urination.
