Once diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, the patient's life is often subtly affected. For patients, early treatment of the disease is crucial. When some people discover symptoms of polycystic kidney disease, it is often a common clinical manifestation of patients in the clinical treatment process that both kidneys develop together.
How to treat polycystic kidney disease effectively? Nephrology experts from Phoenix Traditional Chinese Medicine Channel pointed out that with the development of medicine, there are currently many methods for treating polycystic kidney disease at home and abroad, but it should be noted that existing spherical cysts cannot disappear. Treatment should first avoid factors that increase renal damage, such as urinary tract infection, urinary tract stone or blood clot obstruction, hypertension, and avoid the use of nephrotoxic drugs (such as streptomycin, gentamicin, etc.) and pain relievers. The prevention and treatment of urinary tract infections is the most important, as urinary tract infections can accelerate the deterioration of renal function, and it is very difficult to cure infections within cysts. It is difficult for drugs to reach effective concentrations within cysts. Therefore, it is of great significance to actively prevent their occurrence, especially to avoid using urinary tract instruments as much as possible.
To get rid of the entanglement of the disease as soon as possible, it is necessary to treat polycystic kidney disease as soon as possible. Clinical experience tells us that conservative treatment for polycystic kidney disease is generally effective and can effectively prolong the patient's life. Although adult polycystic kidney disease cannot be cured, it progresses very slowly to uremia. The average life expectancy of patients is around 50 years, and after symptoms appear, the average survival time is 10 years. However, individual differences are significant, and there are also many lifelong asymptomatic individuals. Even in the end stage of uremia, alternative therapies can be implemented, including hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation, all of which have been surviving for over 10 years.
