As kidneys work to regulate blood volumes, thereby, Polycystic Kidney Disease
usually causes malignant hypertension. Thereby, only PKD is controlled firstly
that malignant hypertension can be alleviated.
What is malignant hypertension?
Malignant hypertension is very high blood pressure, in which the lower
(diastolic) blood pressure reading, that is normally around 80 mmHg, is often
above 130mmHg.
How does Polycystic Kidney Disease cause malignant hypertension?
Polycystic Kidney Disease is characterized by numerous cysts. As cysts grow,
they will suppress and squeeze nearby renal tissues, causing insufficient blood
and oxygen to kidneys. When renal ischemia and anoxia appear, kidneys will be
stimulated to secrete renin. This substance will activate RASS system and
increase blood pressure. As long as renal cysts can not be controlled, blood
pressure will keep elevating constantly.
How to alleviate malignant hypertension caused by PKD?
As mentioned above, the key to alleviate malignant hypertension is to control
renal cysts which are the original source to blood pressure problems. Only the
anti-hypertensive drugs can not decrease high blood pressure from the root. This
is why once patient stop the drug, blood pressure level improves again.
Surgery is a common treatment to affect renal cysts. However, one of the big
problems is that surgery will lead to relapse of PKD, because large cysts gone
will leave more space for smaller ones to grow faster than before. Besides,
repeated surgery can not be taken for it will cause your kidney function
dropping quickly.
Compared with surgery, the herbal treatment can be anther choice. This
therapy can take effects on lining cells of cysts to stop the growth of renal
cysts.
Meantime, it can transform the structure of lining cells to shrink the
renal cysts. Herbal treatment can take effects on all-size cysts, not only on
the larger ones. This ensures that PKD fails to relapse. As long as renal cysts
are controlled, it is no wander that malignant hypertension will get an
alleviation spontaneously.
