Chinese Medicine for Kidney Failure

Chinese medicine has various featured characteristics, and ‘promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis’ is one feature considered as the basis of Chinese medicine concept. And this is also the basis of Chinese medicine treating kidney failure.
Kidney failure or kidney function decline is closely related to poor blood circulation of the whole body, and especially within the kidneys. We all know that kidneys are where blood filtration takes place. Blood filtration guarantees the excreting out of metabolic wastes like urea and creatinine, as well as discharging extra water within the body. So, we can tell that what matters is whether there is fluent blood flow into kidneys for further filtration. Let’s imagine what will be the result if the whole body blood circulation speed slows down, or there is blood circulation block within the kidneys? Metabolic wastes and extra water retention within body are the initiators of creatinine level increase and serious edema.
Chinese medicine helps with treating kidney failure through promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
For person with kidney failure, in most cases, there is problem in their whole body blood circulation. This situation will be even more obvious among person with Diabetes, Hypertension, or Hyperlipidemia. These diseases commonly injury blood vessels directly (in cases of Diabetes) or indirectly slow down blood flow speed (in cases of Hypertension and Hyperlipidemia). Chinese medicine focuses on dissolving these blood circulation blocks like stasis and thrombus, as well as alleviating pathological change in blood vessels and proving necessary materials for the repairing of these injuries.
Secondly, pathological changes of kidney functional cells (like the necrosis of kidney blood capillary cells) will block blood circulation within the kidneys. In addition, kidney cells depend on blood circulation to provide them with necessary nutrients and oxygen. Chinese medicine dilates blood vessels and guarantees enough blood flow into kidneys, in order to provide more blood to kidney cells. More blood flow into kidneys is the basis of damaged cells’ self-repairing. By this, the progression of damaged cells developing into necrosis will somehow be blocked.
In short, Chinese medicine focus on promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to guarantee fluent and enough blood flow into and within kidneys, in order to promote the overall kidney condition.
