Kidney atrophy describes a condition in which the kidneys are shrinking in
size due to the loss or inadequate circulation of nephrons-the basic structural
and functional units of the kidneys. With the decline of renal function, the
renal veins and arteries also begin to shrink.
What causes kidney atrophy?
Firstly, kidney atrophy can be caused by infections, such as kidney diseases
or conditions like acute pyelonephritis, which can damage the nephrons'
functions. With continuously decreased blood flow to the kidneys caused by
atherosclerosis, atrophic kidneys tend to occur. In addition, atrophic kidney
may appear when there are reflux nephropathy and other disorders of kidneys.
Secondly, kidney atrophy may also appear when there is thinning of the
kidneys' functional tissues, or renal parenchyma. This can be led by urinary
tract obstruction that results from increased pressure to the tissues. Ischemia
presents because of a compression to the intra-renal arteries and veins, which
can also lead to atrophic kidney.
How to know there is kidney atrophy?
If kidney atrophy appear, there may be symptoms, such as blood in urine,
painful urination and frequent urination. Pain of the kidneys also related with
atrophic kidney. Obstructive uropathy can interfere the urine flow and result in
the pressure of the back, causing damages to the kidney nephrons. With gradual
loss of renal function, shrinkage of the kidney appears.
How to treat kidney atrophy in a natural way?
In order to treat atrophic kidney effectively, we need to block further
damages of the nephrons, repair the damage renal functional cells and tissue,
and restore the kidney function. Chinese herbal remedy, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, is just such kind of treatment.
Micro-Chinese Medicine is a natural therapy, and the medicines come from
herbal plants, so patients suffer no side effects and toxins, unless you are
allergic to herbs. Besides, for patients with severe atrophic kidney, the most
advanced Immunotherapy is also adopted to joint with Chinese herbal medicine. In
this way, patients with atrophy kidney can have a satisfactory recovery.
