The second reason that may cause kidney failure is food poison, because the poison foods in body will also gastrointestinal tract infections and even cause kidney damage. Besides, diarrhea can also cause dehydration, electrolyte disorders, malnutrition and disturbed internal environment, which will also cause kidney damage and even kidney failure.
However, diarrhea can cause acute kidney failure, but the prognosis is good, because the acute kidney failure can be cured with prompt and effective treatment. For patients who get acute kidney failure, they may experience some obvious symptoms, such as reduced urine output, nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, fatigue, and swelling.
