Treatment of Kidney Failure

Treatment of Kidney Failure without dialysis at Welling Homeopathy Clinics include our specially formulated Homeopathy treatment for long-term preservation of kidney function. Homeopathic Treatment of Kidney Failure can be long but far better tolerated than dialysis and other treatments where-in you need to visit the hospital regularly.

What is Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)?

Chronic kidney disease includes conditions that damage your kidneys and decrease their ability to keep you healthy by doing the jobs listed. If kidney disease gets worse, wastes can build to high levels in your blood and make you feel sick. You may develop complications like high blood pressure, anemia (low blood count), weak bones, poor nutritional health, and nerve damage. Also, kidney disease increases your risk of having heart and blood vessel disease.

In the early stages of chronic kidney disease, you may have few signs or symptoms. Chronic kidney disease may not become apparent until your kidney function is significantly impaired.

Treatment for chronic kidney disease focuses on slowing the progression of kidney damage, usually by controlling the underlying cause. Chronic kidney disease can progress to end-stage kidney failure, which is fatal without artificial filtering (dialysis) or a kidney transplant.

What Causes Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)?

Anyone can get CKD. Some people are more at risk than others. Some things that increase your risk for CKD include:

• Diabetes
• High blood pressure (hypertension)
• Heart disease
• Having a family member with kidney disease
• Being African-American, Hispanic, Native American or Asian
• Being over 60 years old Return to top

What Are The Symptoms of Kidney Failure?

You may notice one or more of the following symptoms if your kidneys are beginning to fail:

• Itching
• Muscle cramps
• Nausea and vomiting
• Not feeling hungry
• Swelling in your feet and ankles
• Too much urine (pee) or not enough urine
• Trouble catching your breath
• Trouble sleeping
• If your kidneys stop working suddenly (acute kidney failure), you may notice one or more of the following symptoms:
• Abdominal (belly) pain
• Back pain
• Diarrhea
• Fever
• Nosebleeds
• Rash
• Vomiting

Having one or more of any of the symptoms above may be a sign of serious kidney problems. If you notice any of these symptoms, you should contact your doctor right away.

Complications of CKD

Your kidneys help your whole body work properly. Chronic kidney disease can affect almost every part of your body. Potential complications may include:

• Fluid retention, which could lead to swelling in your arms and legs, high blood pressure, or fluid in your lungs (pulmonary edema)
• A sudden rise in potassium levels in your blood (hyperkalemia), which could impair your heart’s ability to function and may be life-threatening
• Heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease
• Weak bones and an increased risk of bone fractures
• Anemia
• Decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction or reduced fertility
• Damage to your central nervous system, which can cause difficulty concentrating, personality changes or seizures
• Decreased immune response, which makes you more vulnerable to infection
• Pericarditis, an inflammation of the saclike membrane that envelops your heart (pericardium)
• Pregnancy complications that carry risks for the mother and the developing fetus
• Irreversible damage to your kidneys (end-stage kidney disease), eventually requiring either dialysis or a kidney transplant for survival

The Facts About Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

• Early detection can help prevent the progression of kidney disease to kidney failure.
• Heart disease is the major cause of death for all people with CKD.
• Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best estimate of kidney function.
• Hypertension causes CKD and CKD causes hypertension.
• Persistent proteinuria (protein in the urine) means CKD is present.
• High-risk groups include those with diabetes, hypertension, and a family history of kidney failure.
• African Americans, Hispanics, Pacific Islanders, American Indians, and Seniors are at increased risk.
• Two simple tests can detect CKD: blood pressure, urine albumin, and serum creatinine.

What if My Kidneys Fail?

Kidney failure means that your kidneys have lost most of their ability to function. Work with your doctor our specialist and family to consider your options to replace your lost kidney function, such as Welling Homeopathy Treatment, dialysis, or transplant. Choose a treatment that is right for you.

How is CKD treated?

Damage to your kidneys can be permanent. Although the damage cannot be fixed, you can take steps to keep your kidneys as healthy as possible for as long as possible. You may even be able to stop the damage from getting worse with Homeopathy.

• Control your blood sugar if you have diabetes.
• Keep a healthy blood pressure.
• Follow a low-salt, low-fat diet.
• Exercise at least 30 minutes on most days of the week.
• Keep a healthy weight.
• Do not smoke or use tobacco.
• Limit alcohol.
• Talk to your doctor about medicines that can help protect your kidneys.

The goals of these treatments are to ease symptoms, help keep the disease from getting worse, and lessen complications. In some cases, your treatment may help restore some of your kidney function.

The plan you and your doctor will decide on will depend on what’s causing your kidney disease. In some cases, even when the cause of your condition is controlled, your kidney disease will worsen.

Once your kidneys can’t keep up with waste on their own, you’ll have treatment for end-stage kidney disease.

If you catch kidney disease early, you may be able to prevent kidney failure. But if your kidneys fail, then you will need dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive.

We suggest meeting our specialists or consulting us online to help you recover damage to your kidneys and prevent future complications like dialysis or transplant. You would need a detailed assessment before our specialists can start our Homeopathic treatment of kidney failure.
