How to Treat the Acute Nephritis?

The acute nephritis, know as acute glomerulonephritis. It is more common in children and more men than women. This disease often caused by catching cold, because the pathogenic bacteria in acute nephritis and cold are the same, both is hemolytic streptococcus infection.
The symptoms of acute nephritis
The acute nephritis develops quickly, and the latent period is usually around 10 days, and often accompany by hematuria, proteinuria, edema and hypertension. Therefore, if the cold patients appear abnormal urine, edema or hypertension, he need to pay attention to the kidney disease, for there are more chance that he has affected with acute nephritis.
The harm of acute nephritis
Most acute nephritis prognosis is good, but there are few poor prognosis, such as the patients with heavy proteinuria, elderly patients, persistent hypertension or renal damage patients.
Some of the acute nephritis patients due to the lack of timely and effective treatment, turn for chronic nephritis, even the chronic renal failure.
The treatment of acute nephritis
First, pay attention to the rest, this kind of patients easily occur fatigue, weakness and other symptoms, so they need a rest.
Second, anti infection, among the medicines, the penicillin is the best. If the flat body inflammation repeatedly, you need to consider removing it.
Third, symptomatic treatments, such as diuretic reduce swellings, lower blood pressure. If in acute renal failure, then the dialysis needed.
In general, the acute nephritis do not need special treatment, have a good rest is ok.
The change of acute nephritis
Only a minority of acute nephritis can turn for chronic nephritis, acute renal failure and even lead to chronic renal failure. For the renal failure patients, the usual treatment is do regular dialysis and the application of hormone. But all these treatments are only take temporary effective, cannot affect a permanent cure, once the treatment is stopped, the disease will be repeated.

Now the most effective treatment for renal failure is the Mirco-Chinese Medicine treatment and blood purification. Through the plasma exchange, immune adsorption and other blood purification treatment, to clean the immune complexes and avoid further kidney damage. At the same time, using the Mirco-Chinese treatment to expand the blood capillaried, remove the blood stasis, alleviate ischemic kidney cells, improve microcirculation, and increase the cell viability and the n repair the damaged kidney function.

Does Renal Failure Patient Need To Drink More Water?

Many renal failure patients think water could help get rid of toxins, water really can help getting rid of toxins,but too much water is not good for health. Generally, when the urine output is less than 500ml, the excretion of wastes will be affected and the possibility of presenting metabolic disorders will be increased, such as, hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis.
However, this does not mean the more water, the better the efficacy. Due to a drop in glomerular filtration function and tubular reabsorption, too much water will increase the burden of kidneys to a large extent. If left uncontrolled for a long time, complications including severe swelling, high blood pressure, cardiac hypertrophy, pulmonary edema, heart failure, etc may occur. In serious condition, patients’ life will be threatened.
On the other hand, as the renal function of concentration is damaged, the urine volume of individuals may exceed 3000ml. If the intake of water is not sufficient, dehydration may appear, what’s more, kidney function will be affected.
After reading this words, renal failure patients should know they can’t drink too much water, proper intake of water is good for illness.

How Should Patients with ESRF be Responsible for Themselves?

To be responsible for themselves, ESRF patients should not only actively cooperate with doctors on drugs and dialysis treatment in hospital, but also have effective self-management in action. Then what should they do to be responsible for themselves?
Do not use antique cooking utensils, because they are coated with pigment made from cadmium.
Have low protein diet. End-stage renal failure patients should have low protein diet. Healthy people need protein of 1-1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight, and patients with ESRF should take in less than 0.5 grams per kilogram of body weight so as to reduce the generation and retention of nitrogen mass metabolites in the body.
Avoid chemicals which could damage kidneys.
Have enough rest. ESRF patients should have enough rest and good nourishment. Remember that they should not engage in high intensity activities.
Limit intake of food high in cadmium. Mussels, scallops, oysters, vegetables grown in sludge, animal livers, food made from kidneys, flounders and other foods are rich in cadmium, and patients with ESRF should have less intake of them.
Quit smoking.
Once patient are found to have polycystic kidney disease, they should inform their parents, children and siblings to have check in hospital so as to have timely treatment.
If patients with renal nephritis are difficult to recover from influenza, they should be careful that whether their renal function is damaged or not.
Above are information about daily attentions for ESRF patients. They should have active treatment and do a good job related to nursing in daily life.

What does Increase of Creatinine Mean?

When it comes to increase of creatinine, healthy people are not familiar with it. But patients with renal diseases know it very well, because there are creatinine indexes in tests and sometimes there are increase or decrease of creatinine levels, which show that there is something wrong with their kidneys and they should take some treatments. Then what does increase of creatinine mean?

Serum creatinine concentration depends on the glomerular filtration function. But serum creatinine is not consistent with creatinine clearance rate, creatinine clearance rate being more sensitive than serum creatinine. When the glomerular filtration rate drops by more than 50%, serum creatinine begins to increase. Therefore, when the serum creatinine is obviously higher than normal, it shows that your renal function is damaged severely.

Due to the large renal reserve capacity, at early stage of renal diseases, serum creatinine concentration is not elevated generally. When the glomerular filtration rate drops by at least 50%, serum creatinine concentration would be found increased, so it has poor sensitivity. Once serum creatinine increases continuously, it shows that the prognosis is not good.


Increase of creatinine usually appears in acute or chronic glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney diseases and other renal diseases. When the glomerular filtration function decreases caused by above diseases, serum creatinine concentration still shows normal at early or mild damage of glomerular filtration function, which is because that storage capacity and compensatory ability of kidneys are still very strong. Only when the glomerular filtration rate drops to 1/3 of normal, would blood creatinine values rise significantly.

Why Would Patients with ESRF Have Nosebleed?

Patients with end-stage renal failure would have more symptoms, and the common symptoms are nausea and poor appetite. But there is an uncommon or less unknown symptom: nosebleed. Why do patients with ESRF have nosebleed often?

Nausea, vomiting and poor appetite are common symptoms of patients at the beginning of ESRF. But when their illness becomes advanced, their whole body system would be affected, and they would suffer from mental disorder and severe coma which may kill them. Then what are the reasons of nosebleeding? In fact, nosebleed in patients with end-stage renal failure is led by nasal mucous membrane rupture caused by blood pressure or high creatinine. In order to avoid the appearance of similar symptoms or severer symptoms, patients with renal failure should have early treatment so as not to lead to the progression of early end-stage renal failure.

Now treatment of western medicine is mainly drug treatment, the main function of which is to reduce serum creatinine and toxins in blood by increasing the discharge of intestinal toxins. It plays the role of discharging toxins, but it just takes temporary solution in the end which would lower the level of endotoxin in the blood temporarily. Dialysis is a good example. It could not restore the damaged kidney function fundamentally, and it is a helpless choice for patients with end-stage renal failure. Long-term dialysis would lead to a gradual loss of kidney function. And kidney transplantation is also a tough choice and treatment.

Here, in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, we have professional experts and good treatment of all kinds of kidney diseases, which is a good choice for patients with renal diseases. Our treatment is traditional Chinese medicine treatment which would restore your kidney function gradually. No matter what disease you have, we would make you have a rewarding trip.

Why my weight increased after the dialysis?

Doctor, I began to do dialysis last December, and the weight increased from 78kg to 83kg. is this the right symptoms? What should I do?
Normally, there are two reasons can increase the weight for the dialysis patients.
First, during the dialysis, the urine output will decrease, at this time if the diet is not change, then the water will increase in the body and edema will appear. Sometimes the edema is not obviously, so you need to pay more attention.
Second, after the dialysis, the digestive tract will be improved, and will absorb more diet. In this condition, it is real weight increase, not the edema.
Normally, the second cause have little possible, so once the weight not stable, you need to ask your doctor, to know how much salt water you out each dialysis.
Any questions feel free to ask the online doctor or email to Katehelen491@yahoo.com.

The Traditional Chinese Medicine for Kidney Disease

The kidney disease patients complain that the hormone have a great side effect and easily has a relapse, so how should we treat this disease?So, how traditional Chinese medicines treat this disease? First of all, we need to know about the philosophy of this treatment.
http://www.crf-cure.com/Treatments/299.html
The concept of Traditional Chinese medicine treatment
In traditional Chinese medicine, it is said that when the body lack of innate endowment, or acquired deficiency, or subjected to external toxin invasion, will cause the body gas poor, stagnation and blood stasis. When the Qi is not smooth, the blood flow will slow down. Once the blood flow slow down, the blood cells will easily deposit, this is also called the blood stasis. We can image that, once the blood stasis formed, it will easily produce the blood stasis toxin and when the blood stasis toxin formed, gas will be more sluggish, then forming a vicious spiral.
Qi stagnation and blood stasis, stasis poison, and poison plug qi stagnation form the Chinese concept of kidney disease process.
Therefore, Chinese medicine treatment focus on regulating Qi, remove blood stasis and toxin three process to treat the kidney disease.
The advantage of Chinese Medicine
Compared with western medicine, what is the advantage of Chinese medicine?
Due to the Chinese medicine have an unique efficacy on regulating Qi and removing blood stasis, so they have a good effect on promoting renal microcirculation and improving ischemic renal cell condition.
In the poison, although on this side, the Chinese medicine does not have the obvious effect as the western medicine; it still has the unique effect.
What is more importantly, the nature of the traditional Chinese medicines are mild and more thoroughly, and have no side effects, compared with the western medicine.
But, you need go to the regular hospital to receive the traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
The special herb medicines
Why our Chinese medicines are unique? Because we use some unique drugs, these drugs are not used in other hospitals, even they have never heard.
For example, as the Chinese herbal medicine, we use common edelweiss herb, potentilla discolor, euphorbia humifusa, Centella asiatica, Achyranthes, agrimony, Galium, yam, Caragana, Jin Chanhua, snow lotus, persimmon leaf and other medicinal herbs.
As the Chinese patent medicine, we use the sinomenine, pentoxifylline, total glucosides of paeony, Maren capsule and so on. These medicines are more effective than the natural herbs. This effect, not only from our hospital condensed experts’ years of clinical experience, but also from our new creative ways of administration.
The Characteristic treatment in our hospital
When we talk to the Chinese medicine treatment, most of the people tend to think the oral intake of herbs. However, the oral Chinese medicine, because of the influence of hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice, when it reaches the kidney, the effect will not be satisfied.
There are many special treatments in our hospital, like Moxibustion therapy, steaming therapy, point application therapy, circle treatment, medicate bath and other types of therapy and drug delivery, to ensure the medicines can effectively reach the kidney and ensure the treatment effect.
Summary,
The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is a three-dimensional treatment, not a tisane can solve the problem. If you can cooperate with certain western medicine, it is very easy to play a multiplier effect.
