Question: I am a polycystic kidney patient of age 50. One of my legs is paining severely when I walk. My legs have also swollen a little. Am I in a serious condition?

Answer: Leg pain and leg swollen are common symptoms of kidney disease. They are associated with the growing cysts. The cysts damage the renal interstitium and compress the tissues around. They can affect your renal function so as to cause kidney failure. As we all know, kidneys have many function, one of while is to remove wastes and excess fluid from the blood. When your kidney function declines, sodium and water are easily retained in the body, resulting in swelling. Due to the gravity, fluid flows to the legs, resulting in leg swollen. Leg pain is often caused by low calcium, high phosphorus, vitamin D and so on. If you can not bring these symptoms under control, they may affect your life quality. And then they may develop to kidney failure.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is often used to dilate blood vessels, speed up blood circulation on cyst walls, and improve the permeability of the cysts thus making the cysts shrink and decrease. It can also restrain the proliferation of the epithelial cells, so the secretion of cyst fluid will be reduced. When the internal pressure of the cyst declines, the size of the cyst will gradually become small, thus relieving the compression of the tissues around, improving microcirculation, and blocking the progression of renal fibrosis. What is more, this treatment can inhibit the kidney inflammation to prevent further damage, block blood clotting to ensure a good blood environment, degrade extracellular matrix to stop kidney fibrosis, and provide essential substance for kidney self-healing. These function can help repair the damaged kidneys and improve kidney function.
