When the cysts are no more than 3cm, they do not cause damage to your kidneys. Therefore, it is also necessary for you to shrink the big cysts. Chinese medicine can increase the pressure difference inside and outside the cysts and increase the permeability of cyst wall so that cyst fluid can be removed out of the sacs. As a result, cysts become small gradually.

In stage 4, your kidneys have been seriously damaged, but some kidney tissues can still be revitalized with proper treatment. You can also use some Chinese medicine to expand blood vessels to lower blood pressure and increase blood flow into kidneys so as to improve ischemia and anoxia in kidneys. It can also help body expel waste products to reduce waste concentration in body. Besides, it can inhibit kidney inflammation and stop kidney fibrosis to prevent further kidney damage.

Under normal circumstance, after one week’s treatment, your clinical symptoms such as swelling, proteinuria, fatigue, cold limbs and so on will get relieved. After one month’s treatment, your kidney cysts will begin to become small and your kidney function will improve.
