Can Proteinuria Caused by FSGS Be Cured

Proteinuria is the leading complain of patients if FSGS presents as Nephrotic Syndrome. Proteinuria means the kidney is still releasing protein in urine. If this condition can not be controlled or cured, illness will run to End Stage Renal Disease directly. Therefore, a good management of proteinuria is very important for FSGS patients. However, it is said FSGS can not be cured at all; well can proteinuria caused by FSGS be cure?

FSGS can not be cured

FSGS (Focal Segemental Glomerulosclerosis) is a kidney problem in which some glomeruli are injured in the same way. In the initial stage, injured glomeruli can be repaired well, so at that time, FSGS can be cured. However, if we miss the optimal chance for treatment, some injured glomeruli will be dead completely. Currently, no treatment or medicine has been proven to be able to revive injured kidney tissues, so once glomeruli become dead, FSGS can not be cured any more.

Can proteinuria caused by FSGS be cured?

Proteinuria is just a symptom of FSGS. In normal cases, no protein can be detected in urine, because kidney can preserve protein in the body. However, in cases of FSGS, when proteins pass through kidney with blood, proteins leak into urine due to impaired kidney function. FSGS can not be cured, but kidney function can be improved well with effective treatment. Kidney has strong compensatory function, so when only a small part of glomeruli are injured, the residual kidney tissues are strong enough to help to maintain the normal life. Therefore, for FSGS patients, when their kidney function is improved greatly, proteinuria will disappear naturally.

Lastly, although FSGS can not be cured, proteinuria can be cured in clinic. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a herbal treatment that is suggested to improve kidney function and cure proteinuria. It works through performing functions of dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation and degradation of extracellular matrixes. All these functions play different role in improving kidney function. If you are interested in the detailed information, please email to kidney-cares@hotmail.com.
