What Does Class II IgA Nephropathy Mean
IgA Nephropathy, also called IgA Nephritis and Berger’s disease, is the most common glomerulonephritis all over the world. According to progression, this disease is divided into five stages. Today, we mainly talk about Class II IgA Nephropathy.
What does Class II IgAN mean?
Compared with Class I IgAN, class II is more severe in which glomeruli presents focal mesangial proliferation and hardening (<50%), rarely small crescent, and no renal tubular and interstitial damage. In this stage, kidney lesion has affected a small part of glomeruli and glomerular lobule. In this condition, it is still not so difficult to control patients’ illness condition. However, if uncontrolled effectively, Class II IgA Nephropathy will progress into Class III, IV or even V, and it becomes more and more difficult to treat this disease.
How to treat Class II IgA Nephropathy effectively?
IgA Nephropathy is caused by IgA antibody depositing in glomerular mesangial area, so the deal treatment should be able to remove IgA from the kidneys and inhibit further IgA buildup. In the past, this goal was a quite remote prospect, so doctors only can use steroids and immunosuppressants to curb the inflammatory reactions caused by the deposits of IgA through weakening immune system.
Please, don’t worry. With the development of modern medicine, a brand new treatment is created, and it is called Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. As one external application, this therapy uses Chinese medicines with strong immunological competence to combine, split and discharge IgA antibodies. With two osmotic devices, the effective ingredients of Chinese medicines can permeate into the body directly. In the same time, Medicated Bath, Acupuncture, Hot Compress Therapy and Foot Bath may be used to normalize patients’ immune system and prevent the further deposits of IgA.
The whole treatment plan should depend on patients’ illness condition. Since Class II IgA Nephropathy is still not so severe, patients should take treatment timely to stop its progression.
