Swelling Around Eyes and Ankles in Stage 5 CKD

If you are diagnosed with CKD Stage 5 , you will need to see a nephrologist immediately. Most people report that they feel much better once they begin dialysis. As the toxins are removed from the blood and the failed kidneys will perform their functions as usual, because of this, they can enjoy a high quality of life.

Patients with stage 5 CKD not only experience swelling in eyes and ankles, but also other painful symptoms, including :

Loss of appetite

Nausea or vomiting

Headaches

Being tired

Being unable to concentrate

Itching

Making little or no urine

Swelling, especially around the eyes and ankles

Muscle cramps

Tingling in hands or feet

Changes in skin color

Increased skin pigmentation

While, what can patients do to alleviate swelling in eyes and ankles?

Hemodialysis: This treatment which can be done in a center or in a patient’s home with assistance from a care partner. A dialysis machine removes a small amount of toxic substances from patient’s blood through a man-made membrane, which is called a dialyzer. Dialysis cleans out toxins that the kidneys can no longer remove.

Peritoneal dialysis (PD): Unlike hemodialysis, PD is a needle-free treatment and a care partner is not required to to help assist during treatment. PD can be performed at home or at work.

Kidney Transplant is another treatment option for patients to alleviate swelling in eyes and ankles.

However, dialysis and kidney transplant both have side effects to patients. Luckily, the natural treatments in Shijiazhuang take effects to improve kidney function with less adverse effects to patients.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is optimal natural treatment to repair renal injuries and restore renal functions from the root causes. More detailed information you want to know, please leave a message below or send us an email to kidney-healthy@hotmail.com.
