What Does It Mean When Your Kidneys Are Only Functioning at 37%

Kidney is an important organ with many functions in the body, such as filtering blood and producing urine, absorbing minerals, and producing hormones. What does it mean when your kidneys are only functioning at 37%? After reading this article, you will find the answer.

It means you are in stage 3 CKD.

Under 30-60% is stage 3 CKD, which can be reversed to certain extent so as to prevent kidney failure. Under 30% is stage 4 where we only prepare patients for dialysis but not do dialysis. Under 10-15% is what we call failure and then patients may have to undergo dialysis to maintain their life. Therefore, 37% kidney function means you are in stage 3 CKD.

It means many symptoms associated with CKD will appear.

When your kidneys are just slightly damaged, there are hardly any symptoms, but when your kidneys are only functioning 37%, a lot of symptoms will appear, such as headache, weakness, dizziness, nausea, vomit, back pain, muscle cramp, skin itch, shortness of breath, etc. Different patients may have different clinical manifestation.

It means you should receive treatment as early as possible to prevent kidney failure.

Conventional treatment for CKD is to use western medicine to eliminate body malaise, but it can do nothing to improve kidney function. To improve kidney function, you should cleanse waste products building in the blood to reduce their damage to your kidneys. You should dilate blood vessels and remove stasis to increase blood flow into the kidneys so as to improve ischemia and anoxia. Besides, you should decompose the deposited immune complexes in the kidneys to reduce kidney inflammation and degrade extracellular matrix to stop kidney fibrosis. 4M treatment is a good choice for you to achieve all goals. It includes 4 therapies, namely Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Foot Bath, Mai Kang Composition and various Medicinal Soup.
