Why Do Dialysis Patients Have A Hard Time Breathing

2015-02-09 08:22

I think most people may have such this question “do any of you have a hard time breathing while on dialysis”. Whether you or someone you care about are likely to experience difficulty in breath. In this article, you will find the answer.

Breath problems can be caused by the following factors:

1. much fluid in lung

Damaged kidneys are no longer properly removing wastes and extra fluid from the body. Without urination, fluid builds up in the body and can cause swelling, shortness of breath and/or weight gain.

2. heart failure

Dialysis patients are much more likely to experience heart disease. This increased risk is related to kidney disease and other health problems like diabetes and high blood pressure. When you have heart problems, you may also suffer from difficulty breathing.

3. anemia

Kidney disease patients often develop anemia-a low red blood cell count. This makes you feel tired and shortness of breath. Dialysis is a life supporting method. It helps to clean harmful substances out of our body, but during this process, some fresh blood will be removed as well. In this condition, anemia will be worsened.

Shortness of breath is only one of the side effects of dialysis. If you can reduce the frequency of dialysis or even avoid dialysis, you can avoid hard breath and other complications such as low blood pressure, muscle cramps, numbness and fatigue. Well, how to impair kidney damage and improve renal function becomes the key point. We recommend you to have a try of Chinese medicine treatments like Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Bath, Foot Bath and Mai kang Mixture, etc. All these are helpful for repairing kidney damage and enhancing kidney function. When kidney function is enhanced to 15%, you are possible to reduce dialysis frequency or even rid dialysis. Without dialysis, hard breath and other complications of dialysis can all disappear naturally.
