Home remedies for swollen dialysis patient

►“R-I-C-E” method

1. Rest: If you have swollen legs, arms, feet, or ankles, try not to use it in a strenuous way for at least a few days, until the swelling goes down.

2. Ice: Avoid applying ice directly to the skin, but wrap an ice pack in a towel and apply to the swollen area. Do this for 15 minutes at a time, several times a day.

3. Compress: Take a warm towel to wrap your swollen area and keep it for about 10 minutes. It will be better to change to with a cold towel.

4. Elevation: Any time you are sitting or lying down, prop up the swollen area on pillows, above the level of your heart. This prevents blood from collecting in the swollen area and aids in circulation.

► A healthy diet

Keep a low sodium diet and supply enough protein intake. The protein you take should be of high quality and be taken moderately. You can consult your dietitian how much you can take according to your own condition. Or, you can consult our doctor online.

Except for the above home remedies, I would also like to share with you a natural and effective treatment for dialysis patients. This therapy is called “Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy”.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy

It has overcome the disadvantages of dialysis because it is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and has been widely used in China. By improving blood circulation and kidney function, it can treat kidney disease from the root. It can reduce the frequency of dialysis or even can help the patients avoid dialysis.
