Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a common cause of decreased renal
function, resulting in chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children and adults.
People affected by this disease have multiple fluid filled sacs located in the
kidneys. Enlarged kidneys can sometimes cause bleeding into the cysts. If this
happens, what can you do to treat it?
Bleeding into a cysts is when a blood vessel in or on the surface of a cyst
ruptures and the blood goes into the cyst, increasing the size and density of
the cyst, often quite quickly. Patients may suffer from flank pain.
In some cases, this bleeding can be severe enough to require removal the
affected kidney or embolization (a method where a blood vessel is purposely
blocked to prevent bleeding, which may unfortunately result in the death of the
tissue downstream). This will lead to a significant loss of kidney function and
may result in an earlier start time for dialysis. Therefore, these methods are
not the best treatment options.
In China, we apply a unique herbal remedy to treat PKD which is known as
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. Effective ingredients in Chinese medicine
can dilate the vessels of cyst wall, promote the local blood circulation and
quickly remove the cystic fluids. Moreover, it can decrease the intracapsular
pressure, inhibit the continuous secretion of epithelial cells in cysts wall,
and reduce the production of cyst fluid so as to restrain the growth of cysts
and shrink them gradually. In this way, the cysts' pressure to surrounding renal
tissues can be reduced and your disease can be treated effectively. Symptoms of
PKD like bleeding in the cysts can be eliminated.
While receiving medical treatment, you need to make healthy lifestyle
choices. Eat a diet low in protein, potassium, salt and phosphorus. Stop
smoking.
Exercising and controlling blood pressure can help slow the progression
of your disease and guarantee a better curative effect.
