Frequent Urination At Night And Kidney Failure

When your kid has frequent urination at night, you should think of kidney disease. Of course, it does not mean frequent urination at night must be kidney disease. In addition to frequent urination at night, if your kid also suffers from swelling on eyelids or lower limbs, blood in urine or bubbly urine, this may be caused by chronic or basic kidney disease.

Frequent urination at night-one major clinical symptom of chronic kidney failure

Generally speaking, swelling, blood in urine and bubbly urine are intuitive symptoms of kidney disease. When these symptoms occur, they tend to draw patients’ attention. Patients will take early examination and treatment as early as possible. However, frequent urination at night is easy to be neglected.

When some parents find their kids have frequent urination at night, they usually think their kids drink too much. This will neglect the symptoms and delay the treatment. Finally kidney disease will progress quickly and develop to end-stage uremia.

Why do kids with chronic kidney failure have frequent urination at night?

Generally speaking, healthy kids urinate at night 0-2 times. In general, kids drink less after dinner and metabolic rate after sleep is low. With slow blood flow, urine will be reabsorbed via renal tubular. Urine volume at night is obviously less than in the daytime. However, if kidneys are damaged by various factors, kidney function will decline. Kidneys cannot discharge metabolic products out of the body completely in the daytime so they continue to discharge wastes at night so as to cause frequent urination at night.

Kids are our hope. Once they have any discomforts, parents should take children to the hospital in time for inspection. If frequent urination at night is indeed caused by kidney disease, treatment should focus on repairing kidney damage and improving renal function. This can be achieved by Chinese medicine treatments including Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Bath, Foot Bath, Mai Kang Mixture, Blood And Cleaning Therapy, etc. If you have interest in these remedies, you can leave a message to kidneycares@hotmail.com or consult our online doctor directly.
