Polycystic kidney disease: A common genetic disease among Americans

About 600,000 Americans suffer from polycystic kidney disease (PKD). It is a common genetic disease across America. The National Kidney Foundation has no any data available showing the details of affecting people with this disease.

The disease recognizes by the growth of several fluid-filled cysts in the kidney. The cysts replace the mass of the fist-sized organ and reduce kidney function. Back pain, headaches and blood in the urine are the general symptom of this disease. It appears during the age thirty and forty. Some times, it appears in children too. Kidney transplant is the best treatment for this disease.
