How to Alleviate Anemia in PKD

With the progress of the kidney disease, many symptoms occur, such as low back pain, abdomen pain, while, can PKD causes anemia? And more importantly, how to deal with anemia in PKD?


Persons with PKD have multiple clusters of cysts form on the kidneys. The exact action that triggers cyst formation is unknown. In early stages of the disease, the cysts cause the kidney to swell, disrupting kidney function and leading to chronic high blood pressure and kidney infections. The cysts may cause the kidneys to increase production of erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates production of red blood cells. This leads to too many red blood cells, rather than the anemia seen in chronic kidney disease.

Normally, Anemia does not happen until Polycystic Kidney Disease develops into End Stage Renal Failure, but patients who suffer from continuous Haematuria may have light Anemia. Compared with other Renal Failure patients whose diseases are caused by other Kidney Diseases, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients usually get Anemia later than those patients with lighter degree. There are still some patients who get Anemia in Polycystic Kidney Disease before End Stage Renal Failure, but Anemia is always caused by other factors.

blood dialysis and peritoneal dialysis can eliminate the metabolism waste in human body, regulate the balance of water and electrolyte and extend the lifetime of erythropoiesis. However, the effects of dialysis for renal anemia are limited.These methods adopted by Western medicine are just aiming at the symptoms of renal anemia caused by PKD, so they just can relieve the patients' condition temporarily and they can not treat PKD fundamentally. Differing from western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine proceed from the cysts of PKD patients. At present, on the basis of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital combines them with the most advanced technology in the world, forming a brand new therapy-Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. By promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, softening cysts wall and increasing the supply of blood, this therapy can improve the adsorption of cysts wall and further decrease the damage to normal renal function and promote the recover of renal function. By this way, it can treat renal anemia and PKD fundamentally.

The natural treatments for reliving anemia in PKD should focus on stopping the growth of kidney cysts by preventing the active substances in the epithelial cells from releasing, it also can promote the excretion of cysts fluid by increasing the blood circulation of the surface of the kidney cysts.
