The kidneys are a pair of small, bean-shaped organs located towards the back of the torso and behind the lower ribs. Although people are born with a pair of kidneys, the body can still function efficiently with just one healthy kidney. The functions of the kidneys include:-filtering wastes from the blood-balancing the body's fluid content-regulating blood pressure and red blood cell production Disease, birth defects, or injury can damage the kidneys and leave them unable to function normally. There are two types of dialysis, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis.
