Question: My Dad is 58 and was diagnosed with polycystic cyst on the kidney. The doctor told me there is nothing they can do to assist him. He needs to control his blood pressure. Any advice is helped, thank you.

Doctor: One of the obvious symptoms of PKD is high blood pressure. Because when kidney cysts enlarge, they will oppress the blood vessels around, leading to less blood supply. This will stimulate the release of renin and cause high blood pressure. On the other hand, the enlarged kidney cysts will damage the kidney and lead to decline of kidney function. High blood pressure occurs when sodium and fluid retain in the body, while not enough secretion of prostaglandin.

According to the two causes, what we should do is to improve kidney function and shrink kidney cysts. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Micro-Chinese Medicine Hot Compress Therapy is very efficient. The powdered Chinese herbs can be penetrated into the damaged kidney through putting the herbal bags on the Shenshu acupoints. They can inhibit the generation of cyst fluid and increase the permeability of cyst walls so that the fluid can flow out. With time going, kidney cysts become smaller and smaller. Besides, this therapy can dilate the blood vessels so as to lower blood pressure and it can also repair the damaged kidney. With the improvement of kidney function, blood pressure can be controlled easily.
