How Dangerous Dialysis Is

What are side effects of dialysis? Many hospitals consider dialysis as the only treatment for uremia. However, dialysis can only alleviate patients’ some clinical symptoms but cannot recover kidney function from the root. At the meanwhile, it will also bring some side effects for patients.

Experts introduce that dialysis is also called artificial kidney and it is one of the therapies of blood purification. Kidney dialysis can save people but cannot cure the disease. This is because dialysis can discharge toxins from the body timely and quickly but the side effects of dialysis may worsen the kidney conditions. If patients take dialysis for a long time, kidneys will shrink gradually and life can even be threatened.

Long term dialysis can make kidneys shrink and no blood for kidneys. Thus, no urine will be produced. Without urination, water in the body cannot be discharged so patients will rely on dialysis for a long time. It is difficult to control water consumption. What’s more, dialysis cannot make toxins decrease to normal levels. Toxins will also do damages on other body organs and patients will do dialysis three times a week. It lasts 4 or 5 hours for each dialysis. Dialysis affects patients’ work and life severely. The complications of dialysis include low blood pressure, headache, back pain, abdominal pain, lung insufficiency, disorder of electrolytes and acid-base.

Actually, dialysis is not the only way for blood purification.
