Kidney disease affects a huge number of peoplepeople. And, despite the very high level of development of modern medicine, treatment does not always bring the expected effect. This explains the high popularity of treating kidney diseases with folk medicine. Sometimes these recipes have a truly beneficial effect on the human body, reducing all manifestations of the disease to a possible minimum. However, it goes without saying that it is completely unacceptable to completely refuse to visit a doctor and the treatment prescribed by him - remember that folk medicine can only help in the fight against the disease, but not an alternative.
Inflammation of the renal pelvis
Inflammation of the renal pelvis todayis the most common disease. As a rule, inflammation of the renal pelvis is a direct consequence of such a disease as cystitis - inflammation of the bladder. Pathogenic microflora along the ascending pathways gets directly into the renal pelvis, where the development of the inflammatory process begins. A little less often, but still sometimes the cause of the development of the inflammatory process in the renal pelvis can be a kidney stone. With this disease, traditional medicine advises the patient the following treatment methods:
- Baths
Very effective as general warm bathsadding a decoction of chamomile, and local sessile ones - with the addition of a decoction of horsetail. Decoctions are prepared quite simply: take two tablespoons of one or another raw material (depending on what decoction you need), pour them with one liter of water, bring to a boil and cover tightly with a lid. Let the decoction brew for at least two hours, then strain it with gauze. The decoction must be added to warm water, at the rate of half a liter of decoction per 20 liters of water, immediately before taking a bath. The course of treatment should continue as long as necessary for the sick person to feel a significant improvement in his condition.
- Compresses made from warm cabbage leaves
After the sick person takes a bath,he should make the following wrapping compress - ordinary cabbage leaves should be placed in an oven heated to 300 degrees for a minute, then cooled slightly, and applied to the kidney area. The compress should be tightly fixed on top with a bandage or some other fabric. The compress should be left overnight. The course of this treatment should coincide with the course of taking medicinal baths.
- Gentle diet
Also, under no circumstances should a sick personforget about the need to follow a therapeutic diet. It is necessary in order to relieve the kidneys as much as possible. After all, during illness, excessive load on the kidneys is absolutely unnecessary. Try to compose your diet in such a way that it contains as few protein products as possible. Products such as fresh fruits and vegetables are welcome. Pay special attention to parsley - it is also extremely useful for kidney diseases.
Weakness of the kidneys
Poor kidney function leads to the fact thatthe excretory function is extremely weak. The first and most obvious sign of this disease is a change in the composition, color and smell of urine - it becomes almost colorless and odorless. This is explained by the fact that urine consists almost entirely of water, and all the substances that should be excreted from the body remain in it. Of course, this disorder of the heart cannot but affect the general condition of the patient's body and his well-being. A person complains of a periodic feeling of nausea, progressing as the disease develops, general weakness, dizziness and increased sweating. Most often, the cause of kidney weakness is long-term chronic inflammation of the kidneys, or the use of painkillers by a sick person. Also, the risk of developing this kidney disorder is especially high in people who suffer from diabetes. In addition, a provoking factor can also be severe psychoemotional stress, or chronic fatigue syndrome, which also have a very negative effect on the functioning of the entire urinary system, and the kidneys in particular. This condition is extremely dangerous for human health, so self-medication in this case is unacceptable. If a person feels unwell, they should seek medical help from a doctor as soon as possible.
Stones in the kidneys
Another fairly common one iskidney disease is urolithiasis. A huge number of people live for years with kidney stones, but do not even suspect it. However, at one "wonderful" moment, a kidney stone can get stuck in the ureter, or simply turn on its edge. And the person develops very strong renal colic, extremely painful and excruciating. Renal colic is manifested by the following symptoms:
- A pronounced general weakness.
- Panic state of fear.
- The strongest panic and fear of death in a sick person.
In the event that the stone itselfmove to the bladder, intestinal colic will disappear. However, if the kidney stones are too large, surgical intervention is necessary to remove them. Traditional medicine in this case recommends taking the following measures:
- Drinking regime
The amount of water drunk by a sick personshould increase to at least two liters. Moreover, doctors do not recommend drinking mineral water - it is much wiser to give preference to ordinary clean non-carbonated drinking water. Please note - most of the liquid should be drunk between 5 and 7 p.m. - this is the period when the urinary system is most productive.
- Drinking tea
Also folk medicine for renal colicadvises sick people to drink teas with plantain, rose hips and nettle. Moreover, these teas can be consumed without any restrictions, but not less than one liter per day.
- Warmer or compresses
During an attack, the patient must remain in bed; it is recommended to apply either warm heating pads or compresses to the kidney area, which must be changed as they cool down.
- Beet Juice
Beetroot juice is also considered very good.remedy for intestinal colic. Half of freshly squeezed beet juice, drunk before each meal, but not less than three times a day, can completely dissolve a kidney stone. However, remember that the course of treatment should not last longer than ten days. Many people who have kidney stones, recognize treatment with folk remedies as very, very effective.
Prophylaxis of kidney disease
Of course, it's much better not to do anything at all.encounter kidney disease. And for this, it is necessary to follow preventive methods. They are not so difficult - anyone can cope with them - if only there is a desire. The first thing you need to remember is that very often the cause of kidney disease is banal hypothermia. You should never forget about this. This applies to a greater extent, of course, to women - what you won't do for the sake of beauty! Thin tights, short jackets, bare back - and as a result, desperate back pain in the morning. Dear girls and women, remember that for such "sacrifices" in the name of beauty you can pay too high a price. The second thing you should pay attention to is what you drink. Of course, no one argues with the fact that mineral water is very, very useful. However, if you abuse it excessively, urolithiasis can develop - it is provoked by the minerals contained in the water. Also, be extremely careful with taking various medications. All medications put a very serious strain on the kidneys and significantly complicate their work. People especially often abuse various painkillers: for toothache, headaches. Or for painful menstruation. They mistakenly believe that one or two pills will not harm them. And they themselves do not notice how taking these drugs becomes a habit. And as a result, the kidneys suffer greatly. And the last thing I would like to remind you about: if a person's kidneys hurt, the symptoms and treatment may be different for everyone. Many things are strictly individual for each person. And therefore, a visit to the doctor, when the first symptoms appear, is extremely necessary for all patients without exception, regardless of whether they use traditional medicine or not.
