When the levels of acid in your blood are too high, it’s called acidosis.
When your blood is too alkaline, it is called alkalosis.
Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are due to a problem with the lungs.
Metabolic acidosis and alkalosis are due to a problem with the kidneys.

Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are due to a problem with the lungs.
Metabolic acidosis and alkalosis are due to a problem with the kidneys.
Each of these conditions is caused by an underlying disease or disorder. Treatment depends on the cause.
Respiratory acidosis
When you breathe, your lungs remove excess carbon dioxide from your body. When they cannot do so, your blood and other fluids become too acidic.
Symptoms may include fatigue, shortness of breath, and confusion.

Causes of respiratory acidosis
There are several different causes of respiratory acidosis including:
chest deformities or injuries
chronic lung and airway diseases
overuse of sedatives
obesity

Diagnosis of respiratory acidosis
A complete physical examination is necessary. Diagnostic testing may include:
arterial blood gas test
metabolic panel
pulmonary function test
chest X-ray

Treatment
this can be a life threatening condition. Treatment is targeted to the cause.
Bronchodilator may be given to correct some of airway obstruction.
you may require oxygen. Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation or a breathing machine may be necessary

Metabolic acidosis
Metabolic acidosis occurs either when your body produces too much acid, or when your kidneys are unable to remove it properly.
Symptoms of metabolic acidosis
Symptoms can include rapid breathing, fatigue, and confusion.

Causes
There are 3 types of acidosis
Diabetic acidosis or diabetic ketoacidosis
is a buildup of ketone bodies
Hyperchloremic acidosis is when your body loses too much sodium bicarbonate, often after severe diarrhea.
Lactic acidosis is when too much lactic acid builds up.

Diagnosing
may include serum electrolytes, urine pH, and arterial blood gases
Once confirmed other tests may be necessary to pinpoint the cause
Treatment
The condition behind the acidosis must treated
In some cases, sodium bicarbonate is prescribed to return to a normal pH.

Alkalosis
when alkaline levels are too high due to decreased carbon dioxide or increased bicarbonate. This called alkalosis
Symptoms of alkalosis may include:
muscle twitching, hand tremor, muscle spasms
numbness and tingling
nausea/vomiting
lightheadedness
confusion

Causes and types of alkalosis
Respiratory alkalosis is when your blood has low levels of carbon dioxide. This can be caused by a number of factors, including:
lack of oxygen
high altitude
fever
lung disease
liver disease
salicylate poisoning

Diagnosing
Along with a physical exam, diagnostic testing for alkalosis may include a metabolic panel, blood gas analysis, urinalysis,and urine pH
Treatment
Some medications
(chloride and potassium) can help correct chemical losses
Further treatment will depend on the causes
