Recently a kidney patient consulted our online doctor: Should I be concerned if I get a bad rash with stage 4 CKD? If you have the similar concern, go on reading to learn more information.

A bad rash may make your CKD stage 4 worse.

With CKD stage 4, the kidneys have been severely damaged so that they can not remove excess waste products from the blood. When toxin concentration in the blood is high, it may stimulate your skin, leading to rash. Rash may make your skin itchy. If you scratch it often, it may cause skin infection. Infection is one of the factors that can add insult to injury.

How to treat rash and CKD stage 4 well?

If your skin is not injured, medicated full bath is a good choice for you. It is to immerse your whole body into the diluted medicinal soup. It can help relieve skin itchy. And it can also help eliminate waste products from body.

To achieve a better therapeutic effect, we often combine it with other therapies, such as medicated foot bath, circle therapy, enema therapy, acupuncture, Moxibustion, etc. They can not only help cleanse waste products from the blood, but also draw toxins out of the renal cells. Besides, they can expand blood vessels and remove stasis to improve blood circulation and increase blood flow into damaged kidneys so that oxygen, nutrients and active ingredients can flow into damaged kidneys to speed up kidney recovery. After about half month’s treatment, there will be great improvement to your skin problems, and other symptoms, such as swelling, proteinuria, high blood pressure, fatigue, etc. After one month’s treatment, your kidney function will improve gradually.

Should I be concerned if I get a bad rash with stage 4 CKD? Yes, you should, because without timely treatment, stage 4 will quickly develop to stage 5. At that time, you have to start dialysis to maintain your life. For more information on CKD treatment, please leave a message below or send emails to kidneycares@hotmail.com.
