What kind of treatment can revive the kidney in people suffering from diabetes and CKD?
3 of 5
Dialysis is not capable to revive the kidneys. It just aids the kidneys and takes over their function of filtering the blood and sucking out the waste products. However, it is not a cure. Diabetes management too cannot cure CKD. It can just manage diabetic symptoms and blood sugar within a range. However, homeopathy can treat patients with CKD, manage diabetes, and also revive the kidneys to some extent. Homeopathy works by aiding the body s own immune system to fight toxins and work better. Since a malfunctioning kidney further bogs down due to the presence of toxins in blood, homeopathy can help.
Diabetes increases the risk of CKD.
4 of 5
Diabetes does increase the risk of CKD. In fact, in about 45% of patients who receive dialysis, kidney problem is caused by diabetes. Diabetes damages the small blood vessels in the kidneys. As a result, the kidneys are not able to remove waste products properly. The body starts retaining salt and water and this leads to swelling of ankles and weight gain. The patient may start passing urine laden with protein. Waste materials may also continue to build up in blood. Since diabetes may also damage nerves in the body, voiding itself may become difficult and the patient may start retaining urine. Retention of urine may lead to backing up of urine which has the potential to injure the kidneys. Further, urine retention may lead to growth of bacteria which may attack the kidney. This indicates that diabetes enhances the risk of CKD in a number of ways.
