Does Kidney Failure Make Human Gain Weight

Obesity is one of the leading cause of kidney failure, but having the disease itself can be a factor in weight gain. Kidney failure can make human gain weight.

How does kidney failure lead to weight gain?

One of the complications of kidney failure is fluid retention, also called edema. A normal kidney naturally discharges out water, salt, other fluids from our bodies, but a damaged kidney is much more slow at this process. The result is weight gain that results from retained water as the fluids are not properly excreted into the urine. Usually this weight gain and puffiness can be seen in certain areas of your body such as ankles, feet, legs, hands, stomach and face. With the development of kidney disease, this water retention can lead to other problems like pulmonary edema. This is very dangerous. It can threaten your life.

What is the treatment for weight gain in kidney failure?

From the above, we can see it is injured kidneys that causes water retention and then results in weight gain. Then the radical therapy for weight gain should repair injured kidney tissues and improve your renal function. Only in this way can you get a good result. Here our hospital recommends Toxin-Removing Treatment which includes a series of Chinese medicine treatments like Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Bath, Medicated Foot Bath, Mai Kang Mixture, Moxibustion Therpy, Medicinal Soup, Acupuncture, Enema Therapy and Steaming Therapy, etc. As its name suggests, Toxin-Removing Treatment first removes wastes and toxins from your body to give you a clean blood environment. In a clean blood environment, our Chinese medicine treatments can repair injured kidney tissues and improve renal function through dilating blood vessels, improving blood circulation, preventing inflammation and coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix and providing nutrients. Once your renal function is improved, extra fluid will be discharged from your body. Edema disappears and weight gain is treated.
