Chronic Kidney Disease may be due to inflammation


Chronic Kidney Disease may be due to inflammation

The slow, progressive decline in renal function corresponds to Chronic Kidney Disease. To delay evolution is possible to administer a homeopathic treatment.
Chronic Kidney Disease is a disease whose evolution may be delayed with a homeopathic treatment. The kidneys play several important roles in the body, as they regulate the amount of fluid and mineral elements in the cells. They also help develop the hormones to produce red blood cells and to control blood pressure. Finally, separating the blood and urine and eliminate liquid wastes.
When the kidneys have difficulty in carrying out these functions, and this inability is installed slowly and progressively, you suffer from Chronic Kidney Disease. This problem of kidney function is due to the decrease of nephrons, which produce urine from the filtrate of the blood.
Symptoms of Chronic Kidney Disease

The symptoms are discreet and inconspicuous, so that the affected person may have this problem for years without realizing it. Early symptoms are fatigue accompanied by dark and cloudy urine. Sometimes, the urine may be bloody. On the other hand, are short but frequent urination.
When the disease begins to unravel other symptoms such as mental confusion, convulsions and susceptibility to infections appear. Bone fragility can also be seen, the appearance of hypertension and an abnormal increase or decrease in blood minerals. Over time, the disease is complicated and other symptoms such as electrolytic problems, anemia, dehydration and edema are observed.
Treatment of renal failure due to kidney pathology

Chronic Kidney Disease may be due to inflammation of the kidneys or kidney disease. The patient may also be affected sclerotic nephritis, uremia or hyperuricemia. The homeopathic remedy to use in this case is nephrin Spleen. Furthermore, if the symptom is associated with gastric disorders, angina pectoris and oliguria, is preferred to associate treatment Peucedanum graveolens. Medical treatment is required to treat renal failure, and in no case be replaced by a homeopathic treatment. However, used in adjuvant therapy, homeopathic medicines contribute greatly slow the progression of the disease. These drugs include Lycopodium clavatum, Kali carb and Ammonium carb.
When to see a doctor

Because the symptoms of this disease are apparent only after years, it is preferable to consult a doctor as soon as you notice something abnormal, as traces of blood during urination, a big change in the amount of urine, pain at kidney or cloudy urine. People who suffer from diabetes or arterial hypertension should routinely visit the doctor to diagnose early disease. Indeed, it is at risk persons whose status is favorable to the development of this disease.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is now a global epidemic



Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is now a global epidemic that affects more than 10 percent of the world population, according to the authors of the first article of the series dedicated journal The Lancet this pathology, written by Professor Kai-Uwe Eckardt, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany, and colleagues.

CKD is defined by a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR, the rate at which the kidneys filter the blood) and increased excretion of protein in the urine of a person. These experts raise concerns that a growing body of evidence suggests that not only the kidneys are the target organs of many diseases, but also may aggravate or initiate systemic surprisingly pathophysiological processes through their effects on complex functions and systems of the body .

As with many other chronic diseases, the prevalence of CKD increases with age, so it is more than 20 percent in people aged 60 years and 35 percent in those over 70 years. However, 1 in 25 young adults aged 20 to 39 years also have this condition; the blacks have twice the odds of CKD than whites, in addition to patients with diabetes or a history of cardiovascular disease had the highest prevalence of CKD, reaching 50 percent or more.

The causes of CKD are complex and include common diseases, such as hypertension, metabolic syndrome and diabetes, as well as several less common diseases affecting primarily the kidney. Chronic kidney disease also predisposes to acute renal injury and vice versa. "Even mild forms of renal disease is associated with several adverse effects on body function and increased risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity," the authors say.

"Genetic causes of specific forms of kidney disease and susceptibility to the development of kidney disease in the context of other disorders are also being increasingly recognized," say the researchers, who are committed to professional collaboration between general and specialized health to address "fully" the problem of the prevention of acute and chronic renal failure and improve outcomes.
