Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a progressive disorder with numerous cysts on kidney.When kidneys fail eventually,dialysis will be prescribed.Is dialysis the only treatment option for PKD with creatinine 9?
PKD with creatinine 9
In PKD,the patients have a number of cysts on kidneys.With age, the cysts will increase in both size and number.The enlarged cysts will replace more and more healthy nephrons.Nephrons are the basic units in kidneys and can filter out wastes and extra fluid from body.Reduced healthy nephrons can result in a large amount of wastes building up in body.
Creatinine is the byproduct of muscle metabolism and is normally removed by kidneys.The normal level of creatinine in blood is between 0.6~1.3.Creatinine 9 is associated with very significant kidney damage.
Dialysis for PKD with creatinine 9
Dialysis is a lifesavor for people whose kidneys fail.It can take over partial renal function and remove fluid and wastes from body.Creatinine level will be reduced once patients start dialysis. However,dialysis is no a cure for PKD at all.
Is there any treatment for PKD with creatinine 9 than dialysis?
Dialysis is prescribed when kidneys fail to function.Therefore, to help the patients avoid dialysis,the patients should have treatment to restore the impaired nephrons and increase the number of healthy nephrons.
The first treatment step is to reduce the pressure against the nephrons and treat the causes of damage to nephrons.In this treatment step,the patients should have treatment to shrink the enlarged kidney cysts.
The second treatment step is to restore the impaired nephrons and enhance renal function.If kidney function can be improved, dialysis will not be required.
To attain the above treatment goals,Micro-Chinese Medicines Osmotherapy is the recommended treatment. It is a natural and external treatment without any adverse effects on body. If you are interested in it and want more information about it, you can email to kidneycares@hotmail.com .
