Swelling is one of very common symptoms of FSGS which is a type of nephrotic
syndrome. This kidney disease is characterized with proteinuria,
hypoproteinemia, severe swelling and hyperlipemia.
When they get swelling due to FSGS, will patients feel pain?
In the early stage, they only have slight swelling in the eyelids. So they
would get no pain. However, along with the development of FSGS, their swelling
will worsen in legs and the pit leaves for a long time after the skin of legs is
pressed by finger. In some patients, their swelling is very severe so that the
water deposits in the whole body. And the skin has to stretch in order to
contain them in the body. So many patients complain pain when they are
swelling.
Is there any therapy to remit swelling caused by FSGS?
Only taking diuretic cannot remit swelling from the root. In order to remove
swelling, patients need to treat FSGS by using some effective method. This
disease is the result of a disordered immune system. So Immunotherapy is very
suitable for them to focus on the regulation of immune system.
First of all, immunodepression is essential to block the immunoreaction which
is the major hurt for the kidney tissues. But it only can protect the cells
temporarily. They need immune regulation to improve their physical condition. It
mainly adopts herb therapy that would bring about no side effect. It help the
body to coordinate all the functions of organs and tissues in order to keep a
good internal environment. Over time, the whole body can achieve a wonderful
balance of immune system.
Thereby the kidney tissues would not suffer from damage again and protein
leakage is greatly reduced or even removed. In this way, swelling due to low
level of protein in blood can be removed at all. Immunotherapy helps many people
to remove swelling from the root and you can see the corrugated skin in the
picture. I hope it also can help you to eliminate swelling due to FSGS.
