How to Deal with Enlarged Kidneys in PKD
"I was diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney 5 years ago. So far, kidney function seems to be good, but I am having some discomforts around the midsection due to the enlarged kidneys. I am wondering what I can do to deal with my problem. Thanks."
Polycystic Kidney Disease is genetic and until now genes treatment is immature, so there is no cure for this disorder. Generally, patients will develop high blood pressure in the age of 30s, renal insufficiency in 40s and Kidney Failure in 50s. However, if we can treat the disease well and prevent the enlargement of the kidneys, we can prevent PKD from progressing to Renal Failure and avoid kidney transplant in the future.
You said that your kidney function is still good, the proper treatment for your current condition is as below:
▪ Western medicines are used to relieve the symptoms. For example, your protein in urine, blood pressure, etc should be well controlled by medications.
▪ Chinese herbal remedy- Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is applied to control the enlarged kidneys through shrinking Polycystic Kidney cysts.
For treating this disorder, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a fundamental method. It is an external application, and patients suffer no side effects.
Chinese medicine can inhibit the growth trend of cysts, that is inactivate the epithelial cells of the cyst wall and make it lost the function of secretion. If the cystic fluid stop making, the cysts will not become further enlarged.
For the cysts that have existed, we use herbal remedy to shrink them over time through increasing the permeability of the cyst walls and improve the micro-circulation. The cystic liquid will be reabsorbed and excreted out with urine. If the cysts become smaller and smaller in sizes, their pressure on the surrounding renal tissues will be reduced, and the enlargement of kidneys can be prevented effectively.
