Kidney failure means the kidneys have stopped working at all and are unable to filter the waste material as needed. It is a life-threatening situation to have a threshold of waste being loaded into the bloodstream. People can get over ESRD or end-stage renal disease if they are able to get the right treatment at the right time. At Karma Ayurveda, we recommend ayurvedic treatment for kidney failure to the patients who want to get better the natural way.

Unfortunately, one or both kidneys may fail to work at this time. Sometimes, kidney failure is temporary and comes on without the alarming signs. Other times, it tends to progress with time and get worse gradually over the years. Kidney failure usually progresses in stages, and we call it chronic kidney disease. The last of CKD is also called end-stage renal disease in medical terms.

What Do The Kidneys Do?

The kidneys have several jobs to complete. One of the most important jobs is to help the body get rid of unwanted toxins and waste, including excess fluid not needed. Later on, after the blood filtration process, such waste is collected along with the urine and eliminated with the help of the urinary system.

The kidneys (in pairs) are about the size of the fist, each helping in the blood filtration process. Some people are born with one kidney only, or some people live with one kidney function. But that does not mean your kidneys have failed. As long as your one kidney is functioning normally, you do not need any treatment.

Uremia is a condition that develops when the level of waste in the blood is too high to make you sick. The earlier you get to know this, the earlier you can prepare yourself for the treatment choice and take care of your help with the help of the best kidney failure ayurvedic treatment.

What Are The Symptoms Of Kidney Failure?

The symptoms of kidney failure may begin gradually, and perhaps you may not notice them right now. The symptoms of kidney failure may progress in the middle stages when the fluid remains in the cells and tissues of the body. Uremia makes it hard for the body to function properly, and you may notice a bunch of complications on account of low kidney function. You may notice:

  • Swelling, usually in your legs, feet, or ankles (edema)
  • Persistent headaches
  • Itchiness
  • Tiredness during the day and have bear issues at night
  • Sickness to your stomach, lose your sense of taste, not feel hungry, or lose weight
  • Make little or no urine
  • Blood in the urine
  • Pain when urinating
  • Muscle cramps, weakness, or numbness
  • Pain, stiffness, or fluid in your joints
  • Confusion, have trouble focusing

Following the ayurvedic treatment for kidney failure, these symptoms can be avoided or addressed. Ayurvedic treatment is not limited to medications only, but changes indeed and lifestyle are also recommended to the patients undergoing the treatment. Physical activity, in the form of yoga, is also beneficial for the patients at this time. This wholesome wellness treatment program always helps patients get over their problems with ease.

What Health Problems Can Occur With Kidney Disease?

Kidney disease can lead to a panoply of other health problems. Such as:

High blood pressure. High blood pressure is the root cause as well as signs related to CKD. High blood pressure affects the blood vessels that flow into the kidneys and other organs as well. With damaged blood vessels, nephrons lose their efficiency to work well and eliminate waste substances from the blood.

Heart disease. There is an interchanging link between heart disease and kidney disease. If your heart is not working efficiently, blood pressure may change, affecting how your kidneys are working. Similarly, if your kidneys are not working well, probably your heart is not getting toxin-free blood at any moment, which is again dangerous.

Malnutrition. Uremia is a life-threatening condition in which nitrogenous waste may build up in the blood. This waste may make you feel sick to your stomach, or you may develop a poor appetite. Infections in the body can make it hard for your body to utilize the food efficiently.

Anemia. The kidneys are involved in making several hormones, including the one that helps with EPO production. Erythropoietin (EPO) helps make enough RBCs needed by the body. Red blood cells transmit oxygen from the lungs to other parts of your body. During anemia, your brain and heart may not get enough oxygen, which is again not healthy for you. Anemia is the lack of energy due to low RBCs.

Mineral and Bone Disorder. Healthy kidneys balance calcium and phosphorus in the blood and produce hormones to strengthen your bones. With declined kidney function drops, your kidneys do not produce hormones to help the body absorb calcium. The bones after kidney disease become weak and break easily.

Ayurvedic Treatment For Kidney Failure

This line of treatment is helpful in the elimination of dialysis and transplant completely. So that means you do not need to rely on dialysis for the rest of your lives and get better with the help of the best kidney failure ayurvedic treatment only.
