Hypernatremia is the medical term for having too much sodium in the blood. Sodium is an essential nutrient for the body's proper functioning. The blood contains the majority of the sodium in the body. It is also present in the body's lymph fluids and cells.
Hypernatremia is often mild and does not create serious problems. However, correcting elevated sodium levels is important for preventing or reversing hypernatremia-related complications.
