Can Polycystic Kidney Disease Take Exercise

Can Polycystic Kidney Disease take exercise? This is a puzzling problem for PKD patients. According to this problem, specialists on Kidney Disease notice that PKD patients can take physical exercise properly and scientifically, but excessive exercise is forbidden. As for PKD patients, which standard of daily exercise and work can not affect their body health? Normally, this depends on patients’ individual illness condition. Generally speaking, there are very few problems before patients are 30 years old. Though cysts of most PKD patients begin to compress each other, the pressure caused by cysts is tiny in this period. So patients can take some safe exercise at this moment, but crashing exercise like basketball should be avoided. Usual light exercise can not affect kidneys normally.

If patients are about 40 years old, they should pay more attention on daily work and life. Because cysts produce larger pressure in this period and strenuous exercise usually bring cyst rupture to patients. For this reason, patients should avoid pressure or collision on kidney region. Especially for a housewife, they should be more cautious when she is looking after a baby in order to prevent baby kicking her kidney region.

As for patients who had suffered from Haematuria before, they are required to pay more attention on their daily activity, because cysts of these patients are much easier to get cyst rupture. In order to prevent Haematuria recurrence, patients should take some exercise with less bending angle and lighter strength burn. Besides, these patients should take chairs with similar height of their knee when they are sitting. Walking and slow run can be taken as main morning exercise.


In a word, PKD patients who want to take some exercise should take a proper exercise volume and avoid excessive activity. Besides, the most important thing is to treat PKD in time and control cysts growing. Only in this way, PKD patients can have a normal life as other healthy person.

Immunotherapy to Treat Polycystic Kidney Disease

With deep research on PKD treatment, scientists has made a new break—Immunotherapy. Before learning more about Immunotherapy of treating PKD, the first thing should be done is to know what is Polycystic Kidney Disease and how does it occur.

Immunotherapy treats PKD starting with recovering and renewing injured renal cells. When cysts are still small, they seldom cause damage to renal parenchyma. But with cysts growing, they will compress surrounding renal tissue and renal blood vessel, which can lead to renal local microcirculation obstruction, causing renal ischemia and anoxia. These can damage endothelial cells of renal capillary and attract inflammatory cells infiltration in blood circulation, which speed up renal function injury and start the process of Renal Fibrous. Besides, mechanocyte distributing in renal interstitium can turn into myofibroblast which can secrete and synthesize Extracellular Matrix (ECM) and immune complex. These ECM and immune complex are not easy to de degraded. For this reason, there is an unbalance between ECM degradation and ECM synthesis. Massive ECM deposit in kidney, which causes glomerular sclerosis and renal tubular atrophy. Therefore, renal fibrous tissue will replace healthy nephron gradually. With renal function decline more and more, renal function disappear completely, which means that PKD has developed into end stage. At this moment, patients get Renal Failure or Uremia.

Immunotherapy is a kind of cell with characteristics of multi-directional differentiation and self-replication. Immunotherapy can distinguish injured renal inherent cells and recover these injured cells after they entering into kidney lesion. Besides, Immunotherapy can also produce various types of inherent cells, which can relieve the condition of renal ischemia and anoxia and promote blood circulation of cyst surface. All these methods are helpful to recycle cyst fluid. Besides, Immunotherapy can also inhibit cystic cells growing, which can shrink cysts gradually. Once renal inherent cells are repaired, they can play their function on degrading immune complex and ECM, achieving a balance between ECM synthesis and ECM degradation. Therefore, renal function recovers gradually.


Though Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of hereditary disease, it is not so terrible. Patients should cooperate with doctors actively. Beside, patients should pay more attention on daily diet and exercise. Regular examination is required in order to find this disease and take effective treatment as early as possible.

Mental Care of Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients

Polycystic Kidney Disease should pay more attention on mental care. But why? Actually, one person’s mental condition has great influence on occurrence, development and treatment of Kidney Disease. Different mental characteristics can lead to functional disorder of internal organ and worsen Kidney Disease directly or indirectly.

In Chinese Medicine Therapy, mental factor is one of pathogenetic factors. Human body is a closely integrated organic whole. One person’s mentality is closely related with internal organic function. During the process of Kidney Disease development, mentality is also very important. A good mental mood is beneficial to make Qi flow smoothly, which is helpful to keep each internal organ operating normally. Then water metabolism as well as secretion and excretion function can be normal. All these are favorable for Kidney Disease patients to recover.
Contrarily, bad mental mood can cause Qi dysfunction and blood circulation disorder,, resulting in functional disorder of internal organs which can cause or worsen illness condition.


Clinically, most PKD patients will lose confidence of overcoming the disease due to much long disease course or worsening illness condition. They may feel despondent and pessimistic, or even despairing. For this reason, other family members or patients friends should console patients frequently and encourage patients to fight against with disease. Through this way, patients can cooperate with doctors actively in a favorable mood. During the process of treating this disease, patients should avoid bad mental stimulation, which is helpful for patients’ recovery.

Case Analysis of Polycystic Kidney Disease and Polycystic Liver Disease

Patient Name: Zhang Chunzhi

Gender: female

Age: 62 years old

Province: Handan, Hebei Province

Diagnosis: Polycystic Kidney Disease, Polycystic Liver Disease

Main cause: patient has suffered from Polycystic Kidney Disease and Polycystic Liver Disease for more than 20 years. Bilateral kidneys are both larger than 20cm. Patient herself can touch enlarged kidney. Urine amount: 800ml with light color. Serum creatinine: 872 umol/L. BUN: 34.2mmol/L.

Treatment: after 26-day treatment in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, patient showed great sensitivity on micronized Chinese Medicine. She said that kidneys she has touched are not as hard and large as before.

Test result: serum creatinine, 264umol/L; BUN: 12.3mmol/L. This result is really a great surprise for patient herself and her attending doctor.


Expert comments: PKD is one of common causes of Uremia. Continuously growing cysts can compress healthy nephron, causing nephron injury. Then Renal Insufficiency occurs. According to the above, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital adopts Micro-Chinese Medicine to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. Micro-Chinese Medicine can permeate into cysts directly, and fully play the role of activating blood and dredging channels, eliminating blood stasis and removing obstructions in blood vessel. All these are beneficial for kidney to excrete cyst fluid. Therefore, cyst internal pressure can be reduced and cyst size can be smaller with gradually recovered renal function. As a result, creatinine and urea nitrogen decrease.

Normal Treatment of Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease

Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of congenital hereditary Kidney Disease, belonging to autosomal dominant inheritance disease, which means that this disease can inherit from generation to generation, but never skip generation. Each parent suffer from Polycystic Kidney Disease, each of their children can have 50% possibility of getting this disease. According to statistics, one in 400 to 1000 persons can suffer from Polycystic Kidney Disease.
With PKD occurring, clinical complications, cyst rupture, bleeding, inflammation and stones, appear. All these complications are expressed on patients’ body, which can decrease patients’ immunity and cause infection easily.

Generally, cyst decortication and puncture sclerotherapy are used to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. These two operations can relieve symptoms of abdominal distension and waist pain in a short time, but other complications of Haematuria, anemia, High Blood Pressure and high creatinine can not be solved completely.
Such operations can only treat symptoms instead of treating the disease itself, which can aggravate kidney condition and cause renal ischemia and anoxia as well as glomerular low perfusion. Then patients’ renal function declines gradually and renal ability of excreting toxin decreases greatly, expressed by continuously high serum creatinine. Finally PKD develops into Uremia.

The correct way of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease is to start with recovering patients’ injured renal function and treating complications at the same time. Only in this way, PKD can be treated effectively.


As last, one point should be noted that patients should avoid any exercise that may increase cyst internal pressure; no matter they are accepting treatment in hospital or receiving consolidation treatment at home.

Chronic Waist Pain of Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients

Chronic waist pain which is a common symptom of Kidney Disease should not be neglected by patients. Especially for patients suffering from Polycystic Kidney Disease, they should pay much more attention on waist pain than others, because the painful feeling may be caused by urinary tract infection or Kidney Stone caused by growing cysts, or even renal cell carcinoma can be one of the causes. Patients who suffer from light pain may feel abdominal swelling and discomfort, while patients with serious condition may feel seriously painful. Such pain can be worsened after strenuous exercise. Waist pain may be caused by pressure on renal parenchyma or renal hilus resulting from growing and increasing cysts. Sharp pain always refers to complications of Kidney Stone, hematomas or obstruction caused by renal bleeding, infections and malignant tumor, etc.

Different Polycystic Kidney Disease patients have pain of different degrees, and mental factors can aggravate waist pain of 40% patients. As for patients who suffer from waist pain mainly caused by mental factors, they should accept a systemic treatment, including mental relaxing training and distracting attention, etc. Presently, psychotherapy has been more researched, because it can avoid some danger from taking medicine.

Polycystic Kidney Disease Complicated with Stone

Patient: Wu Changwei, Male, 60 years old

Diagnosis: Polycystic Kidney Disease complicated with Multiple Stone, Chronic Renal Insufficiency Compensatory Stage

Hospitalization: 22ed Jan, 2007 to 6th Feb, 2007

Main Cause: patient has suffered from intermittent waist pain for 15 years.
Test when patient went to hospital: 1. Polycystic Liver Disease; 2. Polycystic Kidney Disease; Type-B Ultrasonic result: left kidney, 22.9*9.6cm; right kidney, 17.1*9.0cm’ large cyst in left kidney, 7.8*5.8cm; large cyst in right kidney, 5.4*4.6cm; small stone can be found in cysts.

Renal Function Test: serum creatinine, 135.7umol/L; endogenous creatinine clearance, 51.5ml/min

Morse Test: renal tubular concentrating and dilution functions are damaged. Patient has symptoms of waist pain and Haematuria.

Treatment: Micro-Chinese Medicine is taken to anticoagulation, antioxidant, anti-inflammation and active blood circulation in order to protect renal function. After 10-day treatment, patient’s appetite increases and waist pain reduced gradually. Brick red granular deposite is found in urine.


Expert Comment: with cysts growing and increasing, these cysts will compress healthy normal renal tissue, causing renal ischemia and anoxia. Then renal function and renal ability of excreting toxin decline. Micro-Chinese Medicine can improve renal blood circulation and shrink cysts through methods of activating blood and dredging channels, eliminating stasis and removing obstructions in blood vessel, repairing and renewing. Through these methods, renal function can be improved, so does renal ability of excreting toxin. Besides, with cyst internal pressure reducing, the pressure on gastrointestinal tract decreases, which is helpful to improve digestive function, then abdominal discomfort can be relieved.

Details of Renal Function Tests

When patients are doubted to have renal injury or they have diagnosed as Kidney Disease, they are always required to receive renal function tests. So what does renal function tests test for indeed? Kidney is a very important organ with the function of excreting water, metabolic waste, toxin and medicine, reserving necessary substances for human body in order to maintain the balance of water, electrolyte as well as acid and base. Besides, kidney still has the function of internal secretion like synthesis and secreting renin and erythropoietin. Based on the above, renal function tests mainly test these functions of serum creatinine, urea nitrogen, internal creatinine clearance and serum uric acid, etc.

Firstly, Blood Uria Nitrogen (BUN) tests: there are more than 15 kinds of non-protein nitrogen in blood, and urea is the most, occupying about 50%. Then amino acid, uric acid, creatinine, creatine and nitrogen follow after. Urea is the final production of protein metabolism, synthesized in liver and transported to kidney through blood circulation. Then urea is excreted out of human body after glomerular filtration. When renal parenchyma is injured, glomerular filtrating rate also decreases at the same time, which can increase urea concentration of blood. For this reason, Blood Uria Nitrogen can be taken as a reflecting index of glomerular filtrating rate.

Secondly, serum creatinine tests: serum creatinine can be divided into endogenous creatinine and exogenous creatinine. Generally, per 20g muscle metabolizes 1mg creatinine per day. If people do not take strenuous exercise, endogenous creatinine secretion is steady every day. Serum creatinine is excreted out of human body after glomerular filtration, and renal tubule seldom reabsorb creatinine with less excretion. Under the condition of controlling exogenous creatinine intake, concentration of serum creatinine mainly depends on glomerular filtration. Therefore, concentration of serum creatinine is a reflection of glomerular filtrating function.

Thirdly, creatinine clearance rate test: plasma liquid amount filtrated by glomerulus per unit time is called glomerular filtrating rate (GFR). Main function of glomerulus is filtrating function, while the objective index of glomerular filtrating function is GFR. In per unit time, the amount of cleared endogenous creatinine of some certain volume plasma is called endogenous creatinine clearance rate. After filtrated by glomerulus, creatinine is difficult to be absorbed and excreted by renal tubule. So under the condition of strictly limiting diet and muscle activity, endogenous creatinine clearance rate should be some equal to GFR. For this reason, this test is a relative effective way to test glomerular filtrating function.

Fourthly, serum uric acid (UA) test: uric acid is the final production of purine metabolism in human body. Nucleic acid of food can be decomposed into purine, while nucleic acid in organic tissue can be decomposed into purine nucleoside. Both purine and purine nucleoside can produce uric acid after the process of hydrolysis, deamination and oxidization. Besides small part uric acid can be broke up in liver, most of uric acid is excreted out of body by kidney. All uric acid is filtrated by glomerulus, and 98% to 100% is reabsorbed by near-end glomerulus. So in normal condition, uric clearance rate is really low, which means that kidney can excrete creatinine easily but excrete uric acid difficultly. In early stage Kidney Disease, uric acid concentration increases firstly. This is beneficial to make an early diagnosis of renal injury.


Because kidney has so many functions and strong reservation ability, even the most sensitive test methods can not test out early and light renal injury. Besides, test result can be influenced by Heart Disease, Anemia and other non-Kidney Disease. Therefore, judgement of renal function can not be made only depending on some single test result. An exact diagnosis should also depend on comprehensive analysis of clinical symptoms.

Hypertension of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) belongs to hereditary Kidney Disease, kind of congenital abnormality. Cysts of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) are mainly caused by eccyliosis of renal parenchyma and renal structure, with different involvement of each kidney. These cysts compress surrounding healthy renal tissue, which can cause renal ischemia and anoxia as well as low renal perfusion. Then Hypertension of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) happens, which means that Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients begin to suffer from Hypertension.

Through observation, many grapelike cysts with different sizes spread over the whole renal tissue, and the volume of cysts is much larger than the volume of renal parenchyma. Kidney enlarges obviously and light yellow liquid can be found in cyst at kidney section. Due to internal bleeding, liquid color may be red or brown, contenting tiny protein, chloride, cholesterin and light urea. Cysts may be open to each other, but isolated with renal pelvis. Cystic pressure on renal tissue can cause renal tubule atrophy and sclerosis, damage glomerulus and renal function. Besides, these cysts also compress kidney blood vessels, reducing local blood flow. Therefore, there will be a high concentration of angiotensin with shrunk blood vessel, leading to Hypertension. In some degree, it is a vicious circle between Hypertension and renal function injury.


Based on the above, generally, once Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients get Hypertension, it means that renal function is about to decline or has already been damaged. For this reason, patients should pay more attention on controlling Hypertension.

Advantages of Micro-Chinese Medicine in Treating Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease which has a long and complex disease course is not easy to be treated completely. Western Medicine Treatment can only treat this disease starting with single cyst, which can not treat this disease radically, having less therapeutic effect. Traditional Chinese Medicine can be effective but also has a slow effect. Based on these problems, Micro-Chinese Medicine was developed by Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, with fast medicine effect and good therapeutic effect. Generally speaking, there are three advantages of Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy in treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).

Firstly, high medicine effect: through the application of strong Ultrasonic Cavitation, Traditional Chinese Medicine turns into Micro-Chinese Medicine particles which is more than 1000 times smaller than former. By this way, effective composition of Chinese Medicine can be spilled out fully, which can improve the permeability of medicine. With medicine permeability improving, medicine particles can enter into kidney lesions directly and freely. These medicine particles can combine with remained and damaged molecular chain of kidney lesions after entering into kidney, forming new renal tissue and cells. Besides, Micro-Chinese Medicine also has the characteristics of fast operating speed, strong pertinence and professional effect, etc. Patients can have direct feelings of fast relieved symptoms and reduced painful feeling.

Secondly, Micro-Chinese Medicine can enter into kidney lesions directly. Back Shu Points are the special acupoints that Qi of Zang-Fu (internal organs) transfuses on back. When there is disease on Zang-Fu, abnormalities can be found on relevant back Shu Points. By using osmosis machine, Micro-Chinese Medicine can enter into kidney lesions directly through Back Shu Points and release highly effective composition of Chinese Medicine to repair kidney lesions. This can make cyst internal pressure higher than internal pressure of blood pressure, which is beneficial to make tiny molecular and water permeate into blood vessel, and excrete these substances out of body, reducing cyst pressure directly. Meanwhile, Micro-Chinese Medicine can also repair endothelial cells on cyst wall and prevent these cells secreting cyst fluid with the purpose of shrinking cysts.


Thirdly, Micro-Chinese Medicine can locate lesions accurately. According to characteristics of computer wave group, mid-frequency currents with different wavelengths and wave shapes are set. Under the action of osmosis machine, active substances of Micro-Chinese Medicine carried by current can get into kidney directly. The length from back kidney region to kidney is taken as the length of wavelength after computer determination. Medicine can enter into kidney lesions within 1 minute with less attrition. Besides, this can activate immune system of patients who have a lower immunity, promoting antibody production and balancing disorder condition of immune system. Micro-Chinese Medicine can prevent kidney damage caused by cystic pressure, reduce mesangial cell proliferation and slow the speed of Glomerular Sclerosis, which can recover injured renal function, improve body condition and strong disease-resistant ability, with fast and lasting effect.

Can Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Relapse

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a common among clinical Kidney Disease, and treatment is the key in the process of Polycystic Kidney Disease treating. In Western Medicine, operation is the most common treatment. Though operation can have some certain effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease, it can not block Renal Fibrosis which is the root cause of this disease aggravation. Under this condition, Polycystic Kidney Disease can be worsened with frequent recurrence.

In Western Medicine Treatment, removing cysts by operation is widely used to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). For example, puncture operation and cyst decortication have been applied in clinical practice for many years. These operations can relieve clinical symptoms obviously and gain supports from many patients. But all these operation can only remove or reduce some larger cysts, which can relieve cystic pressure on healthy tissue, increase kidney blood flow and relieve clinical symptoms in a short time. They can not treat Polycystic Kidney Disease radically. Once patients catch a cold or infection, this disease relapses easily.

Based on the disadvantages of Western Medicine Treatment, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital has developed distinctive Chinese Medicine Treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, through many years of clinical practice and research. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat Polycystic Kidney Disease starting with blocking Renal Fibrosis, which can prevent this disease relapsing effectively.

Active substances of Micro-Chinese Medicine can act on cyst wall to improve microcirculation of cyst wall, which can increase cyst fluid reabsorption and reduce cyst fluid secretion. Through this way, cysts can be shrunk gradually and the pressure on healthy kidney can be decreased, prolonging patients’ life greatly.


As long as patients accept treatment that can block Renal Fibrosis, repair injured renal inherent cells and inhibit cysts growing effectively, disease recurrence can be avoided. Then patients can have a longer time, living as normally as other healthy person.

Diagnosis Methods of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

An early diagnosis is very important for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) to accept timely treatment. If effective treatment can be taken in time, this disease can be worsened with easy recurrence, causing Renal Failure, or even Uremia. Well then, how to make sure that whether patients get Polycystic Kidney Disease or not and can exact diagnosis depend on some symptoms only? The answer is “not”.

Firstly, main clinical symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease: continuous or paroxysmal pain on waist and abdomen usually happens as primary symptoms, and painful feeling will be more serious after tiredness; Haematuria is a typical symptom happened among nearly half Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, expressed by intermitted gross Haematuria without pain; Abdominal masses in various sizes can be touched on upper abdomen flank, sometimes complicated by Hypertension with vertigo and headache; Renal Insufficiency can be found by obvious abnormality of renal function tests, with low but fixed urine specific gravity.

Secondly, Body Check: unilateral or bilateral kidneys can be touched in nodule shape through body check. Pressing pain can be felt when there is a infection. 50% patients have increased size of waist.

Thirdly, Assistant Tests:

(1) Routine urine test: no abnormality can be found in early stage, and microscopic Haematuria can be found in middle and late stage. Some patients may have Albuminuria. White Blood Cells and pyocyte can be found when there is complicated by Stones and Infections.

(2) Urine osmotic pressure test: even in the early stage when there is only very few cysts, expressions of renal concentrating function damage can be observed. This means that this damage may not be related with kidney structure damage only. Instead, it may also be related with renal insensitivity to antidiuretic hormone. Renal concentrating function decline happens before glomerular filtrating function decline.

(3) Serum creatinine is increasing progressively with kidney compensatory ability decline. Creatinine clearance rate is a more sensitive index.

(4) In KUB plain film, increased kidney image can be seen with irregular shape.

(5) Through IVP, deformation tendency of compressed renal pelvis and renal calices can be found. Renal pelvis and renal calices can be found in strange spiderlike shape. Renal pelvis is plain and wide, while renal calices neck become longer and thinner, showing a curved shape.

(6) Through Type-B Ultrasonic examination, a large number of shadows can be found in bilateral kidney region.

(7) Bilateral kidney enlargement can be found in CT examination, with lobulated shape. Many cysts with thin cyst wall can be found inside fluid.


If patients doubt they get Polycystic Kidney Disease, they should go to normal hospital for a whole body checks. Taking medicine by their own choice is forbidden, which can lead to some unnecessary problems.

Haematuria of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Patients

Recurrent Haematuria is a problem most patients are worried about, and how to prevent Haematuria recurrence has also gained high attention from Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients.

Haematuria is more common when patients are suffering from Hypertension and kidney enlargement, mainly caused by small blood vessel rupture near cysts. Besides, urinary tract infection and Kidney Stone can also cause Haematuria.
Haematuria can last for one or several days. At this moment, patients should take a bed rest and increase liquid intake. Some proper medicines can be taken to treat relative symptoms. If blood produced by blood vessel rupture enters into cyst directly, there will be severe pain instead of Haematuria. Repeated Haematuria is related with renal function injury, so patients should avoid active bleeding actively.

It is more difficult to treat Haematuria caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease than Haematuria caused by other Kidney Diseases. Clinical Haematuria caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease is easier to relapse. Generally, Haematuria can disappear in 4 to 8 days after medicine treatment, but it appears for another time not long after disappearing, especially for patients who suffer from Polycystic Kidney Disease. The more frequent Haematuria of PKD relapses, the higher risk and ganger of patients get end stage Kidney Diseases. Treating Haematuria caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease should start with many aspects:

Firstly, when Haematuria happens, patients should pay more attention on controlling infections. Most Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients are easy to get renal infections once Haematuria happened. These infections can worsen Haematuria.

Secondly, treatment that can activate blood, eliminate stasis and improve blood circulation should be taken to treat this disease. Growing cysts compressing renal parenchyma can cause glomerular ischemia and anoxia, which is reason why Polycystic Kidney Disease usually happens with so many complications. Therefore, methods that can dilate blood vessel, improve blood circulation on cyst wall and increase permeability of cyst wall should be taken to increase renal blood perfusion, speed up reabsorption of cyst fluid and prevent cysts keeping growing.


If only Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patient can block Renal Fibrosis, repair injured renal inherent cells and inhibit cyst growing effectively, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) as well as its complications, Haematuria included, can be treated. Then patients can live a normal life healthily when carrying this disease.

Can Polycystic Kidney Disease Be Treated without Operation

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of genetic Kidney Disease which refers to many cysts appeared in renal cortex and renal medulla. Among treatments of Polycystic Kidney Disease, cyst puncture, cyst decortication and Nephrectomy are mainly adopted. But with social science development, disadvantages of these operations are appearing gradually. It has been proved that operations of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease can not meet patients’ needs any more.

The first disadvantage: operation can only treat surface problems instead of starting with disease cause. Surgical operation is good at removing lesions in order to eliminating discomforts caused by neoplasm, but it can not treat the disease radically. Either puncture or decortication can only treat Polycystic Kidney Disease starting with larger cysts, playing limited role in dealing with smaller cysts. Besides, with large cysts removed, internal pressure reduces at the same time, which can make small cysts grow more rapidly, damaging renal function further. For this reason, surgical operations are not suggested to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease in order to prevent vicious circle which can worsen renal function into irretrievable damage.

The second disadvantage: both Nephrectomy and Kidney Transplantation needs a really high cost with unpredictable result. Most people think Nephrectomy and Kidney Transplantation are good ways to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease radically, and they are indeed. But as a large trauma operation, Nephrectomy is a serious test for patients. In addition, due to genetic feature of Polycystic Kidney Disease, when patients remove sick kidneys, acute failure may happen to another kidney. As for Kidney Transplantation, besides expensive cost and difficulties of matching, reject action that may appear after operation can make most patients shrink back.


Due to the disadvantages of surgical operation, most patients turn their attention to Chinese Medicine. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can block Renal Fibrosis and relieve illness condition. The core technique of this treatment is to micronize Chinese Medicine with good effect on treating Kidney Disease in order to fully release and mix effective composition of Chinese Medicine. Then with the help of Osmosis machine, this treatment can make effective medicine enter into renal lesions directly in an external application. This new developed treatment can avoid side effect of oral medicine on one hand, and on the hand it achieves the goal of making effective medicine enter into renal lesions directly.

Complications Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

In recent years, the incidence of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is on a rise. Once patients get infections, cold or external pressure, cyst internal bleeding can happen, causing sharp pain. Bleeding may be caused by complicated tumor on cyst wall. When Polycystic Kidney Disease patients accept normal treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease, they should also prevent kinds of complications happening actively in order to avoid illness condition aggravation. Well then, what complications can Polycystic Kidney Disease cause?

Firstly, Kidney Stones and Kidney Calcification: when more serious pain, colic or gross Haematuria appear, patients may have the possibility of getting complicated Stone.

Secondly, urinary tract infections: this includes cystitis, nephropyelitis, cyst infection and perinephric abscess. As for female, instrumental examination is a dangerous factor that can cause urinary infection. If White Blood Cell Cylindruria can be found and patients have quick reaction to anti-inflammation treatment, it is beneficial to diagnose nephropyelitis. Blood Culture shows positive and local pressing pain may point to cyst infection and infectious cyst can be found through CT examination.

Thirdly, cyst cancerization: when patients have symptoms of pain on kidney region, Haematuria regulation change, increasing blood sedimentation as well as Anemia unequal to renal function or globalism, they should be aware of complicated Kidney Cancer. Timely CT examination is necessary and sometimes renoarteriography is needed.


When cysts are located in the bottom of kidney, clinging to ureter, this can worsen hydronephros, and pressure on renal pelvis from urine can cause pain on back. Besides, this can also lead to kidney infection.

Spring Diet for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Patients

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients should have a proper diet, especially in spring with changeable temperature. Patients should choose a scientific diet according to their body condition. As for the diet of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients, some points are listed as follows:

Firstly, polluted food which can cause gastrointestinal disease or even more serious poisoning and threat to life is forbidden. For this reason, patients should pay more attention on food cleanness. They’d better avoid taking food outside, especially food from street stalls.

Secondly, eating amount is also limited for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients. Both too much intake and too little intake are harmful to patients’ body condition. If patients take less food, they are easily have malnutrition, while too much intake can damage digestive and absorbing function of spleen and stomach, causing obstruction of Qi and blood circulation. It patients eat too much greasy food, they can get internal heat problem easily. Therefore Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients should have many meals but little food at each in order to keep necessary energy and nutrition for body.

Thirdly, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients should have a diet with low salt and low fat. Beef, mutton, animal viscera as well as spicy and stimulating food are forbidden. More fresh vegetable and fruit are necessary. Patients are advised to take renal function tests every 3 months regularly in order to prevent renal function being damaged.

Fourthly, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients should avoid uncooked, cold and icy food which can damage Yang of spleen and stomach. While too much spicy and hot food can cause heat accumulation in stomach. Much more details should depend on patients’ individual condition.

Though a scientific diet is helpful to keep patients’ health, the key of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is still proper treatment. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which has a distinctive effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is suggested to patients. It has been proved by clinical practice that this treatment has a good effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).

New Treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

The key of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease is to shrink cysts in order to avoid compressing on kidney by growing and increasing cysts. Once cyst fluid secretion can be controlled effectively, cysts can be reduced and this disease can be controlled completely.

When there is a local infection on cysts, patents have painful feeling. With cysts growing and increasing, they will replace healthy renal structure, causing renal function decline. Clinically, High Blood Pressure, abnormality routine urine test and renal function tests can be found. Therefore, timely treatment is necessary to be taken with the purpose of controlling illness condition.

Western Medicine usually treats Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) through two methods: puncture and surgical operation of removing cysts. Both the two methods can remove larger cysts effectively. But when large cysts are removed, they will leave more space for smaller cysts which can grow rapidly without pressure from large cysts. Under such circumstance, kidney is damaged for a second time. For this reason, the most disadvantages of Western Medicine is that it can only treat surface symptoms instead of treating the disease itself.

In order to solve the problems of Western Medicine, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is developed after many years of clinical practice to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). This treatment has solved Traditional Chinese Medicine limitation of slow absorption and delayed effect on one hand, and on the other hand, it prevents this disease relapsing after patients healing.

After entering into kidney cysts, active substances of Chinese Medicine can play a fatal role in inhibiting proliferation of epithelial cells on cyst wall. Once epithelial cells of cyst wall stop secreting cyst fluid, cyst fluid reduces with decreasing cyst internal pressure, and then cysts shrink. Through these methods, cystic pressure on kidney can be relieved and renal function can be recovered gradually.
