What Can Happen if You don’t Treat Hematuria

As for the symptoms of hematuria, some patients feel very scared, while some patients take it light. So many patients wonder what can happen if you don’t treat hematuria. Many patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease know that hematuria is one of the common symptoms of this disease. It is caused by the burst or rupture of the cysts. It is very dangerous if the patients don’t treat it in time.

If patients don’t adopt proper treatment for the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease, the cysts will enlarge continuously. With the enlargement of the cysts, if there is some pressure or some impact of the kidney area, the blood capillary on the cysts wall will burst. Then there will be two kinds of cases. One is that the blood of the blood capillary come into come can’t come into the urine tract and the blood comes into the intraperitoneal causing peritonitis, which is very dangerous and even deadly.

The other case is that the blood come to the urine tract and is eliminated out with the urine. This case shows as hematuria. As hematuria is divided into gross hematuria and microscopic hematuria, so sometimes the hematuria is not visible by our naked eyes. However, both of the two types of hematuria should be treated in time. Otherwise, hematuria can cause the urinary tract infection. What’s more, if there is no proper nursing intervention, the infections may lead to retrograde infection, which will lead to the further damage to the kidney. And sometimes hematuria may cause the inner cysts infection, which is rather difficult to treat.


Therefore, I hope every patient can treat hematuria with correct attitude and take proper and timely treatment for it. This is responsible for your illness condition and yourself. If you have other doubt about hematuria, please send email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult online.
