Polycystic Kidney Disease Treatment Method


Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a disorder in which clusters of cysts develop primarily within your kidneys. Cysts are noncancerous round sacs containing water-like fluid.
Dialysis for Polycystic Kidney Disease 

Kidney dialysis is a necessary treatment for people with end-stage kidney disease or permanent kidney failure. You need dialysis if you've lost about 85% to 90% of your kidney function. Temporary dialysis may be needed in some cases.
Hemodialysis is most commonly used to treat people with end-stage kidney disease. However, children who need dialysis usually receive peritoneal dialysis.
Kidney Transplant For Polycystic Kidney Disease

PKD can cause the kidneys to fail. Because kidneys are essential for life, people with ESRD must seek one of two options for replacing kidney functions: kidney transplantation. In hemodialysis, blood is circulated into an external filter, where it is cleaned before re-entering the body; in peritoneal dialysis, a fluid is introduced into the abdomen, where it absorbs wastes and is then removed. Transplantation of healthy kidneys into ESRD patients has become a common and successful procedure. Healthy-non-PKD-kidneys transplanted into PKD patients do not develop cysts.
Ayurveda For Polycystic Kidney Disease

Ayurveda has several medicines which can act on cysts and reduce both the number and size of cysts. In addition, there are several Ayurvedic medicines which act on abdominal cysts, benign tumours, and fluid filled pockets such that the size can either be reduced, or the growth can be dissolved completely. Ayurvedic medicines work effectively for polycystic ovaries, polycystic kidneys, as well as within the liver. Most such medicines are simple herbs which are completely safe for prolonged use and also have multiple benefits like improving the digestion, and improving the function of the affected organ such as ovary, kidneys and the liver. The proper use of such medicines therefore helps in conception in women having polycystic ovaries. Individuals who have polycystic kidneys can be treated so as to reduce the size and number of the cysts, in order to prevent complications like hypertension and chronic kidney failure.
Chinese Medicine For Polycystic Kidney disease 

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has two goals: one is to shrink kidney cysts and the other is to improve kidney function. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is created on the basis of TCM and it has overcome its disadvantages through the combination of advanced western medicine and traditional herbal medicine. This treatment, compared with oral herbal medicine, is externally applied on lower back skin so the pesticide effects can reach to the kidney lesion directly.

How To Prevent PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) Develop into Renal Failure


Will PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) develop into Renal Failure? This is a question many patients who have been diagnosed with PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease)often ask and they are really concerned with the development of PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease). As we know, PKD is a kind of genetic disease, which means that there are many cysts in kidney. In the cysts, there is liquid which is isolated with the outside.
Will PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) develop into Renal Failure? The answer is absolutely. If PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)can not be controlled well, cysts will press renal units day by day. And then, when the renal units are damaged by 50%, renal insufficiency will take place. With the increasing of damaged renal units, kidney can not work as well as before, and Uremia may even take place. This process is called renal fibrosis.
So how to prevent PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)from developing into Renal Failure? Effective measures can make it.
In western countries, doctors often apply puncture or operation, which can only eliminate cysts for a while and can not treat it fundamentally. In addition, patients with PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)may easily get infection. So more and more patients are seeking for a better treatment, which can treat PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)thoroughly and has no side effect.
Now this dream has come true. After more than 20 years’ trial and error, experts in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital researched out a brand new therapy based on traditional Chinese medicine: Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.
Three processes how Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy go as follows:
Firstly, invigorate the circulation of blood. By extending renal arteries, the groundwater increment of blood will increase, micro-circulation in the body can be improved. In this way, the permeability of cyst wall will increase, the reabsorption of sac liquid will be increase, which can shrink the cysts.
Secondly, clear away the stasis and immune complex. Degrade the fibrosis and the deterioration chain which is caused by renal fibrosis.
Thirdly, repair the damaged intrinsic cells and rebuild normal renal function.
After these three steps, cysts will shrink and PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)will surely not develop into Renal Failure.

Chinese Medicine Treatment For Polycystic Kidney Disease


1. For western medicine, there is no good treatment for PKD patient but dialysis or kidney transplant, but for Chinese medicine, we use Micro-Chinese medicine to shrink the cysts and to improve the renal function.
2. As I said yesterday on phone, the successful rate is 100% as it is not surgery, not oral taking medicine, it used as an osmotherapy which is the external application treatment. It can reduce the size of renal cysts, enhance the renal function, and delay the growth of renal cysts. You know Micro-Chinese Medicine is abstracted from the Chinese herbs, without any side-effect for the human body.
3. Before the treatment, we need a system tests include medical test and physical test for the patients, as you know the medical test is an important step of the treatment which can tell us which kind of medicine is the most proper for the patient.
4. 1). As I said we use Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for treating PKD. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is different from traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Here, Chinese herbs are superfinely shattered into powder and packaged in a sack. When used, the sack should be soaked in the special penetrate for around two hours and then be heated for one hour or so. After all is ready, patients just need to lie in bed with two sacks attached to renal regions. What’s more, the sacks are connected with an osmosis device, the mechanism of which is to promote permeation of medicine by vibration indirectly controlled by electron pulse. In this way, the ingredients of Chinese medicine can efficiently permeate into the renal lesions, realizing the goal of treating kidney disease effectively. Patients would feel massaged during the treatment, very comfortable. Usually this treatment is given 2-3times every day and 45mins each time. Specifically speaking, Micro-Chinese Medicine can dilate blood vessels and decrease blood coagulation, thus improving blood circulation of kidneys. In addition, it can also decrease inflammatory reaction and degrade extracellular matrixes (ECM) both of which contribute to fibrosis of renal functional cells. In this way, Micro-Chinese Medicine can effectively prevent fibrosis and thereby stop kidney disease from progressing. And it works well on shrinking cysts as those cysts will start to become smaller in 4-5 days and the cysts wall will become softer and softer. And the medicine course depends on our cooperation which needs you to control your diet and pay more attention on your daily life except for the medicine. What’s more, according to the patient’s condition, we may use oral taking herbal medicine, food bath, medicine bath etc.
5. There is no side effect of the treatment, the only thing is how well the patient will recover, their condition will not get worse by using the treatment.
6. for the abroad patients, because of the limitation of the visa, most time they can just stay in China for around one months, but it needs they continue the treatment when they get home, because you know kidney disease is a kind of chronic disease, the treatment course will be a little longer.
7. There is possible to get rid of dialysis, but it depends on some factors such as how much renal function the patient have, the cooperation between the patient and the doctor and the patient’s complications etc. For the dialysis patients, our purpose is trying our best to let them get rid of dialysis or reduce the dialysis frequency and have a better life in the future.

Is Coffee Bad for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)


Is Coffee Bad for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
Coffee is helpful for us to keep conscious while we feel tired after several works. However, can people with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) drink coffee?
Coffee may accelerate the progression of Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Coffee can release stress hormone like epinephrine and cortisol, which are helpful in relieving pressure and supplying energy. However, drinking too much coffee will cause the rapid increase of these two substances, and thus result in Kidney Failure. For sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease, drinking too much of coffee will accelerate the progression of kidney damages, and eventually cause Kidney Failure.
In addition, most of sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease have elevated blood pressure. As drinking too much coffee will aggravate high blood pressure symptom, and according to the studies, one glass of coffee will make the elevated blood pressure last for twelve hours, so from this aspect, Polycystic Kidney Disease should avoid drinking too much coffee.
Moreover, drinking too much of coffee will induce osteoporosis. Caffeine has strong ability in promoting the generation of urine, so long-term drinking of coffee will make large amounts of calcium lose from our body, leading to the easy occurrence of osteoporosis. For people with Polycystic Kidney Disease, due to the pathological changes in their kidneys, they are easily to catch osteoporosis and drinking too much coffee will make them get osteoporosis easier. Therefore, sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease should avoid drinking too much coffee in their daily life.
Drinking too much coffee is harmful for the health of Polycystic Kidney Disease sufferers.
Coffee contains large amounts of caffeine. Ingesting too much of caffeine will cause caffeinism which include a series of abnormal psychoreaction and physical responces, such as nervosity, anxiety, jerk, insomnia and cardiopalmus.
Right amount of coffee can help to relieve fatigue, so in daily life, sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease can drink some coffee. However, for the sake of health, they should avoid drinking too much coffee. Anything unclear or for more information about PKD, you are welcome to leave message to ckdsite@hotmail.com or consult our consultant online.

How does the Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy Treat PKD

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can promote the blood circulation of the cysts wall, then the liquid will be absorbed and decreased. As the pressure inside the cyst decreases, the size of cyst also can become small. Once the pressure to the kidney is eliminated, the renal function will recover gradually and some discomforts will disappear.
Then how does the Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy treat PKD?
1 It can reduce the formation of liquid inside the cyst and alleviate the pressure to glomerulis, renal tubules and kidney blood vessels, promote the blood circulation of damaged renal tissues and improve the anaerobic condition.
2 With the continual enlargement of cysts, the kidney ischemia and anoxia will occur and the renal fibrosis will be started. In this condition, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can stop this course.
3 The active substance of Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can offer necessary materials for the repair of damaged kidney, like various vitamins, microelements, organic acid, amino acid and so on.

Is There a Cure for Polycystic Kidney Disease?


Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) here refers to autosomal dominant inherited disease. Except changing the causing gene, we have no method to remove the cysts completely. If you mean the cure is to make those cysts disappear, there is no cure for Polycystic Kidney Disease for changing the gene is still in experimental stage and kidney transplantation are not suitable to all patients, but we can shrink the cysts, not affecting patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease. In treating PKD, we must control the cysts growing, protect the surviving nephrons and recover renal functions.
Is There a Cure for Polycystic Kidney Disease?
Controlling the cysts growing
With genetic flaw, urine tends to be blocked in the joint of kidney tubules and renal collecting ducts. As there is interspace between its epithelial cells and its wall, the blocked urine will cause cysts and the epithelial cells of cysts secrete fluid into the cysts. The cysts are growing. So in order to control their size, we must promote fluid in cysts drain out and prevent the epithelial cells of cysts secreting fluid into cysts. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has those functions. By external application, the effective medicines will arrive at the lesion and inactivate the cells of cysts, achieving the goal of restraining fluid secreting. Though promoting blood circulation and increasing the permeability of capillaries on the surface of cysts, internal fluid will drain out along with urine. The balance of those two courses keep the cysts in a benign situation that they never get bigger.
Protect the surviving nephrons
After the cysts are controlled, the stressed renal tissues by cysts are released and the blood flow in them become smooth, which greatly improve the lack of blood and oxygen in kidneys. It is Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy that dredges microcirculation and improve internal environment. Provided with enough nutrients, the surviving nephrons can work well in the relative mild environment.
