How to Treat Kidney Swelling (Hydronephrosis)

Hydronephrosis is the medical term of kidney swelling. It occurs when urine cannot drain out from kidney to the bladder. How to treat kidney swelling naturally? You can find answers in this article.

Treatment options for hydronephrosis

Treatment for kidney swelling should be based on the causes. Common factors such as kidney stone, urinary tract blockage or kidney cyst can all cause a delay of urine output to bladder.

What’s more, treatment should vary from person to person since they may have different symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, frequent urination, proteinuria, hematuria and fever, etc.

In that case, treatment for kidney swelling include the following aspects:

● Medicines. Antibiotics may be prescribed by the doctor to treat infections that may occur in kidney swelling. But you should be careful about the dosage to prevent side effects.

● Drain the fluid out. If your condition is caused by a blocked ureter, the following procedures might be performed:

-Insertion of a ureteral stent (tube that allows the ureter to drain into the bladder).

-Insertion of a nephrostomy tube (allows the blocked urine to drain through the back.

● Herbal remedies.

I recommend you to take traditional Chinese herbs. They have the dilate blood vessels, fight against inflammation and degrade extracellular matrixes, thus increasing urine output and waste discharge. Herbal remedies such as Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Bath and Foot Bath are good choices.
