When polycystic kidney disease (PKD) develops to late stage, it will result in swelling and heart failure. Chest distress is only one common symptom of kidney failure, and patients present symptoms like shortness of breath, difficulty to fall asleep. Well, what factors can make patients feel suffocated?

1. Anemia

If patients suffer from severe anemia, red blood cells decrease to 30-60g/L. Since there are not enough red blood cells to carry oxygen, patients will suffer from chest distress and palpitations. After blood transfusion, chest distress can be alleviated.

2. Pericarditis and pleurisy

If patients suffer from pericarditis and pleurisy especially for a large number of pericardial effusion and pleural effusion, shortness of breath becomes serious. Timely dialysis and sufficient dialysis can alleviate shortness of breath.

3. Pulmonary infection

If PKD patients suffer from pulmonary infection, this can cause hyoxemia and induce or aggravate heart failure. At this time, patients should take positive measures to prevent infection.

4. Other factors

Due to oliguria or anuria, unlimited fluid intake, this can lead to fluid overload in your body, causing heart failure and chest distress. Increasing dialysis ultrafiltration can significantly relieve this symptom.

As chest distress and shortness of breath is related to kidney damage, repairing kidney damage can relieve this condition effectively. To repair kidney damage, the most effective treatment in China is Chinese Medicine Treatment including 4M Treatment (Mai Kang Mixture, Medicinal soup, External Application Therapy and Medical foot bath) and top seven Chinese medicine treatment. The active ingredients in these therapies can come to kidney lesion directly and help repair kidney damage through preventing inflammation and coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix, providing nutrients for damaged kidneys, increasing the permeability of cystic wall and changing inside and outside pressure difference of cysts. Gradually kidney cysts become small and kidney damage can be stopped. Then shortness of breath and chest distress can all be alleviated.
