-Traditional Chinese Medicine
It has fewer side effects than western medicine.
Acupuncture. It penetrates needles into certain points to block beta-acceptor of sympathetic nerve and stimulate adrenaline-angiotensin system, so as to lower high blood pressure.
Hot Compress Therapy. It can expand blood vessles and increase urine output, so blood volume declines as well as blood pressure.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. It can make the powdered Chinese medicines enter into your kidney directly through osmosis devices. These Chinese herbal medicines can not only lower high blood pressure but also repair damaged kidney tissues.
* Dialysis or Kidney Transplant
If kidneys are necrotic completely and patients have stopped urinating for more than half a year, dialysis or kidney transplant will be the only choices.
