How Long Is The Survive Rate With Two Damaged Kidneys

We can live quite well with only one kidney and some people live a healthy life even if born with one missing. If both of your kidneys are damaged, how long is the survive rate with two damaged kidneys?

There is no exact answer to the life expectancy of a person with two injured kidneys, because many factors affect the life expectancy such as age, symptoms and treatment he or she chooses. The major influencing factor is the treatment, so here we will talk about a person’s life span with two damaged kidneys from different treatment options.

1. Conventional therapy: dialysis and kidney transplant

Dialysis and kidney transplant are two conventional therapies applied for kidney disease in many countries. There are statistics shown the average life expectancy of dialysis patients:

For patients ranging in age from 20 to 39, non-diabetic: 20 years; diabetic: 8 years

For patients ranging in age from 40 to 59, non diabetic: 13 years; diabetic: 8 years

For patients ranging in age from 60 to 74, non diabetic: 7 years; diabetic: 5 years

Compared with dialysis, kidney transplant can help people live for more than 20 years or so, while some cases will experience the relapses of condition even after hours to weeks.

Dialysis only replaces 10% of normal renal function, so patients remain in a permanently toxic state. Toxic chemicals leached from dialysis tubing, infection from the treatment process, hypotensive crises and so on also make the shorted life expectancy.

2. Advanced therapy: Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy

On the basis of Chinese herbs, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a new development which is a combination of Chinese herbs and western medicines. This therapy is usually applied externally and patients just need to lie down to take this therapy. The two medicated bags which are put under the lower back of patients have the function of anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, degradation, blood vessel dilation, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis as well as providing nutrition for damaged kidneys. Through these functions of active ingredients, damaged kidneys can be restored and renal function will be recovered gradually.

With the two damaged kidneys, if you take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, your life expectancy will be prolonged.
