Why Hypertensive Nephropathy Patients Have Body Jerking
Hypertensive Nephropathy resulted from chronic hypertension can cause some symptoms such as proteinuria and edema. Even though body jerking isn’t as common as these symptoms, some patients with hypertensive kidney disease do have this problem. Why do they have body jerking or twitching?
Long-term hypertension can cause high pressure against blood vessels within kidneys, resulting in protein leakage easily. In turn, protein leakage will damage glomerular filtering system and trigger further kidney damage. With the progression of Hypertensive Nephropathy, more and more waste products and toxins will build up to damage nerves all over the body. This can cause body jerking easily.
Besides, as kidneys are unable to filter blood normally, less blood flows throughout the body. Poor blood circulation transports less blood and oxygen for functioning tissues all over the body. Then, the body especially the muscles begin to jerk.
As we know, in addition to cleansing the blood, regulating electrolyte balance is another important kidney function. As kidneys fail to work normally, low calcium, high phosphorus, and some other disorders can lead the body to jerk commonly.
Now, we have known the causes of body jerking for Hypertensive Nephropathy patients. The next thing, we need to do is to select effective treatment for dealing with patients’ problems. Here are some helpful methods that worth a try.
- Increase the physical activity moderately
- Take massage with the help of professional doctor
- Do Hot Compress Therapy
- Have warm bath regularly
- Make your feet warm
- Eat more foods rich in calcium but low in phosphorus and potassium
Additionally, patients should also take some medical therapies that can help repair damaged kidney cells, so as to manage body jerking from the root. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can both lower high blood pressure and rebuild kidney structure. If you want to treat Hypertensive Nephropathy and its complications fundamentally, you can use it.
