When and Why Kidney Disease Patients Are Told to Drink Less Water

  When and Why Kidney Disease Patients Are Told to Drink Less Water
  When and why kidney disease patients are told to drink less water? Generally, normal people are suggested to take in 6 cups of water every day to make sure the enough amount the body needs and help discharge the toxins from metabolism such as creatinine, urea acid and urea nitrogen, etc. Especially in summer, with people are sweating, we need to take in more water so as to add the salt and other materials we lost in the sweat.
  When and why kidney disease patients are told to drink less water? For those whose kidney disease is not serious, patients need not control the intake of water and take in less water. However, for those who are suffering from edema( oedema or dropsy), they are ordered to limit the intake of water. Edema is because the kidney’s filtration function is severely damaged. In this case, if we take in average amount of water, they still can not be filtrated. Patients with kidney disease will have more severe edema ( oedema or dropsy). For those with serious edema, patients even can not take in any water for the time being.
  Besides controlling water, salt intake should also be restricted. It is because salt will absorb more water, thus causing retention of water and sodium, thus giving kidney more burden.
  In addition, when kidney disease patients are suggested to take in less water, the intake of liquid such as soup and orange juice, etc should also be considered as water intake.

  So to get rid of this condition, patients should take in effective measures as soon as possible. In Kidney Disease Hospital, we have a patient from Yemen. He came here with entire edema so that he even could not lie down and sleep well. After the systematic immunotherapy in our kidney disease hospital, the lost weight by 10 kg and the edema diminish. For more information, welcome to consult.

Hypertension or High Blood Pressure in Dialysis in Kidney Failure

  Hypertension or High Blood Pressure in Dialysis in Kidney Failure
  Why is there hypertension or high blood pressure in dialysis in kidney failure patients? Hypertension or high blood pressure is a main complication in the treatment of dialysis, which often leads to heart failure and death. The statistics shows that before dialysis, about 80% to 100% uremia patients have had high blood pressure or hypertension. 87% diabetic kidney disease patients still can not control blood pressure after dialysis. Long time high blood pressure can really lead to threaten to patients.
  Generally, high blood pressure or hypertension after dialysis can be divided into 2 kinds.
  1. Capacity dependence high blood pressure, which usually takes place in the early stage of dialysis. Its main pathological mechanism is the retention of water and sodium, which makes the body weight increase the by 3% to 4%. There is edema, extending heart size and so on. In addition, there is also risk of heart failure. When body weight increases, blood pressure will increase accordingly.

  2. Renin dependence high blood pressure, which takes place one hour after dialysis. Dialysis can lead to the decrease of body liquid, thus causing the further increase of renin activity, thus causing the deterioration of high blood pressure.

How does Diabetes Cause Kidney Disease?

  How does Diabetes Cause Kidney Disease?
  How does diabetes cause kidney disease (damage)? It is concerned by many people. Diabetes takes place when the body begins to have a problem with insulin, either by not being able to produce enough or by becoming resistant to utilizing the insulin produced. Either way, both types can lead to kidney damage, if not properly treated. Since insulin is the hormone responsible for prompting the cells to uptake sugar from the blood, diabetic patients typically have high blood sugar levels.
  If the diabetes last for a long time, the high blood sugar condition will damage the small blood vessels in the entire body including blood vessels in the kidney, which makes the kidney can not clear the toxins in the blood normally. In this case, our body will retain more water and salt than it should, which can lead to the increased body weight and ankle swelling for filtration water and keeping the balance of the water in the body is one important role of the kidney. You may have protein in your urine. Also, waste materials will build up in your blood.
  About 30 percent of patients with Type 1 diabetes and 10 to 40 percent of those with Type 2 diabetes eventually will suffer from kidney failure. In America, the percent is larger compared with that in other countries.
  The earliest sign of diabetic kidney disease is an increased excretion of albumin in the urine. This is present long before the usual tests done in your doctor's office show evidence of kidney disease, so it is important for you to have this test on a yearly basis.

  Even if you are diagnosed with diabetic kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy, it is not necessary to panic. In Kidney Disease Hospital, we have stem cell therapy which can repair or differentiate into beta cells, which can give new hope for you.www.kidneytcm.com

Can CKD Grade 3 Patients Have Watermelon

  Can CKD Grade 3 Patients Have Watermelon
  Can CKD (chronic kidney disease) grade 3 patients have watermelon? CKD is a general medical item which consists all kinds of chronic kidney diseases such as hypertensive kidney disease, diabetic kidney disease, purpura nephritis, nephrotic syndrome and so on. The condition is complex, so we can not make sure whether patients should have watermelon or not.
  But we can make a decision on whether there is edeme (oedema, dropsy, swelling) and so on. Why? Water melon contains so much water. If edema (oedema, dropsy, swelling) come into being, it indicates that the kidney fails to discharge water. In this case, we should take in less water or no water if necessary. Watermelon no doubt can worsen edema and gives kidney more burden.
  Conversely, if CKD (chronic kidney disease) grade 3 patients have no edema, they can have watermelon for watermelon contains vitamin and can help discharge water in some extent.

  Last but not least, diabetic nephropathy(diabetic kidney disease) should control the intake of fruit including watermelon for fruit contains sugar which is not good for the control of blood sugar.

Why Renal Cysts Have Hematuria( Blood in Urine)

  Why Renal Cysts Have Hematuria( Blood in Urine)
  Why do renal cysts have hematuria ( blood in urine)? Renal cysts can also be called kidney cysts also a kind of kidney disorder, which means that there are enclosed sac or pouch that usually contains liquid or semisolid material.www.kidneytcm.com Hematuria( Blood in Urine) caused by renal cysts can be divided into 2 kinds.
  Firstly, with time passing by, the epithelial cells of Renal Cysts will secrete more fluid. As a result, the internal pressure of cysts increases so the tension of cyst wall also rises. The cysts surface consists of blood capillaries, which will rupture, thus causing hematuria or blood urine. What’s worse, rupture will also easily lead to infection.
  Secondly, renal cysts will grow bigger and bigger if we do not control it, thus causing more pressure to the surrounding tissues. In renal glomerular basilar membrane, there are pores which can only allow small molecules to leak out such as creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, urea acid and so on. If the cyst grows bigger, it will squeeze the tissues and damage the membrane. In this case, red blood cells will also leak out, thus causing hematuria or blood urine.
  So it is necessary to treat it in time so as to avoid the above symptoms. The best therapy for kidney cyst is to shrink the cysts naturally instead of renal puncture, which can only deal with the bigger ones and can not shrink the smaller ones.
  In Kidney Disease Hospital, Chinese Medicine can treat it. Its effective materials can play roles in the surface of the cysts, extend the blood vessels in the blood vessel wall, accelerate the blood circulation of cyst wall, increase the permeability of the cyst wall. After the above mentioned, the inner pressure of blood pressure in the cyst wall will decrease, which reverses the blood gap between the inner one and the outer one, accelerate the reabsorption of water from cyst to the blood vessels. In this way, the cysts will be shrunk.

  The above mentioned are about why hematuria appears and how to treat hematuria with renal cysts hematuria (blood urine). For more information, please consult us online or leave a message.
