Chronic kidney disease (CKD) refers to conditions that damage your kidneys
and decrease their ability to keep you healthy by doing the jobs such as
regulating the balance of water and electrolyte, discharging metabolic waste and
secreting hormones essential to human body.
If kidney disease gets worse, metabolic wastes can accumulate to high levels
in your blood and make you feel sick. You may present complications like edema,
high blood pressure, anemia, proteinuria(Proteinuria and Kidney Disease), hematuria(Hematuria and Kidney Disease), respiratory tract problem,
gastrointestinal tract disorder and nerve problems. In addition, kidney disease
increases your incidence of having heart and blood vessel disease. These
problems may emerge slowly over a long period of time.
Chronic kidney disease may be aroused by diabetes, elevated blood pressure
and other disorders. Early detection and treatment is advisable and helpful to
prevent chronic kidney disease from getting worse. When kidney disease
progresses, it may eventually lead to renal failure, which requires dialysis or
a kidney transplant to replace your original damaged kidneys.
Chronic Kidney Disease does not show obvious symptoms in the early stages,
because kidney is such a particular organ that it has a very qualified
compensatory ability. Each kidney has more than 100 million nephrons which is
the basic point. Given some nephrons damaged, the rest and healthy nephrons can
still sustain the normal running of your kidneys, so you can not realize you
have got chronic kidney disease. If other healthy nephrons get imposed on too
much burden over time, they can also get injured due to overworking.
Consequently, a series of symptoms come across, for instance, Edema in general
body, Lumbago, Elevated Blood Pressure, Anemia, Anuria and enuresis
nocturna.
Usually, patients can go to the hospital for urine routine test, blood
routine test and renal functional examination. Nephrotic physicians diagnose
your disease through checking these watershed indicators, such as Serum
Creatinine(high creatinine level), Urea Nitrogen, GFR, urine specific gravity, erythrocyte and
leukocyte. In usually cases, the level of serum creatinine does not present
bumpy, even though a part of renal function go haywire. However, your renal
function is virtually impaired when the level of serum creatinine hikes
suddenly. Combining with GFR and other indicators, the doctor’s diagnosis will
be more reliable.
Many patients would resort to hemodialysis and kidney transplant when they
are in the end stage of Chronic Kidney Disease. Actually Dialysis is effective
and necessary to remove metabolic waste and toxin in human body, but patients is
probably to addict dialysis. Long term of dialysis will replace the original
kidney and they can become atrophy day by day because of Ischemia and Anoxia of
kidney blood vessels. Micro-Chinese Medicine can promote blood circulation so as
to relieve kidney’s ischemia and anoxia. Renal fibrosis can be blocked and even
restored through treatment. Kidney Transplant has a high successful rate of
surgery, but its survival rate is bleak and uncontrolled. Patients must be
prudent to prevent rejection and inflammation, a small cold would let renal
fail. We use Immunotherapy which can differentiate into various tissues and
organs according to our requirement. This kind of cell has qualified homing
ability, and it can reach damaged area and grow into blood cells and tissue.
Moreover, it is transfused into human body through intravenous injection and
does not need matching at all, therefore this approach is very superior to
kidney transplant in terms of safety and convenience.
