Can stage 5 kidney disease (also known as ESRD) be restored within dialysis? For many kidney patients, they have a misunderstanding about dialysis. They think dialysis can help them restore renal function and fight against the disease, but the fact is that dialysis is only a kidney replacement treatment rather than a treatment for the damaged kidneys. Now read on to learn more information.
Dialysis for stage 5 kidney disease
In stage 5 kidney disease, the kidneys are so severely damaged that they are unable to filter waste products and extra fluid from the blood. Dialysis can take over part of renal function to filter the blood so as to maintain the patients’ life, but it can not work 24 hours as your own kidneys, and it requires you go to dialysis center for 2-3 times a week. During two dialysis sessions, waste products and fluid build up in the blood again, which can cause further kidney damage. That is why your kidney function will become less and less with dialysis going on.
If you really want to restore a portion of renal function, you can try Toxin-Removing Treatment.
Besides dialysis, you can try some other treatments to help cleanse the blood. Toxin-Removing Treatment is a commonly used treatment in our hospital. It is also known as Detoxification Therapy. This is a systemic Chinese medicine treatment, which makes use of various therapies such as Medicated Bath, Foot Bath, Enema Therapy, Steam Therapy and so on to increase your urination, improve your bowel movement and make you sweat so as to eliminate the excess substances from the body. It can also dilate blood vessels and remove stasis to improve blood circulation and increase blood flow into kidneys so that enough essential elements such as oxygen, nutrients and active ingredients of medicine can be transported into nidus to speed up kidney recovery and protect the residual kidney function from being damaged. Moreover, it can reduce renal inflammation and halt the progression of disease.
After about one week’s treatment, there will be obvious changes in urine. It will become smelly and cloudy due to the existence of waste products.
After about half month’s treatment, high creatinine, urea and uric acid level will be reduced.
After about one month’s treatment, your disease will be under control, and renal function will get improved gradually.
