Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is an intractable and hereditary disease that
no therapy in the world can get it cured. It is threatening people’s lives all
the time. Because no overt symptoms for patients can pay attention to, it is
always neglected in the early stage. If no effective treatment to control the
disease, it will advance into kidney failure. So, it is high important to know
the early symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease.
Symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease As a hereditary disease, the cysts
begin to form when people are born. The cysts are very tiny that it is not easy
to be noticed. Patients will feel the symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease
after 30 years old. The following are the common symptoms of Polycystic Kidney
Disease that will give an alert to patients.
1. Backache (Back Pain, Flank Pain or Pain in sides): this is a symptom that
most PKD patients will suffer from. Usually, this symptom will aggravate after
tiredness. The continuous growth of kidney cysts will enlarge the kidney. In
this way, the renal capsule will be dragged and the nerves in the kidneys will
also be pulled. Therefore, the backache occurs. Also, the sharp back pain can
come if the cysts bust or get infected. Usually, dull pain will appear if
Polycystic Kidney Disease is accompanied with kidney stone or blood clots.
2. Hematuria (blood in urine, cola colored urine): half patients will present
hematuria. Most of them are gross hematuria and last for a long time. In severer
cases, streak blood clot will appear.
3. Mass in abdomen: patients can feel the masses and they are in various
sizes.
4. High blood pressure: the occurrence of high blood pressure predates other
symptoms, which needs to be taken seriously. High blood pressure can lead to
great harm to the kidney function.
5. Kidney insufficiency: the continuous growth of the cysts will cause great
pressure to kidney units. Although the whole procedure advances very slowly,
most patients will go into End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
6. Polycystic Liver: 20%-50% PKD patients will have Polycystic Liver. And 10%
patients will suffer from Polycystic Spleen.

formed in the kidneys, surgery is not a good way to get PKD treated. Now, a kind
