Itchy skin is an annoying symptom which troubles most patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease. How to relieve itchy skin has become one of the concerned questions recently. Next, let’s talk about this question.

Before talking about how to relieve itchy skin, I think it is necessary for you to know the causes of it.

The kidney function declines with the progression of the disease. When the disease progresses into stage 3, the kidney function is moderately damaged. So the toxins will accumulate in blood. Since kidneys are not able to discharge them completely, some of the toxins will be discharged through skin, which will stimulate skin, causing itchy skin.

Kidneys are also responsible to keep balance of electrolyte. When kidneys have problems, some electrolyte will deposit in blood. If the phosphorus level is high, it will lead to itchy skin.

Since you have known the main causes, here are some natural treatments recommended to you.

Firstly, it is important to keep the skin clean and prevent infection. Try to wipe the skin with warm water everyday.

Secondly, you can try the natural treatment named Medicated Bath. As its name refers, the treatment effect can be achieved by taking a bath. But this bath is different from the daily bath you take. Some natural herbs will be put into the warm fluid. The effective ingredients will permeate into kidney lesions through skin and draw out the toxins and extra electrolyte. Otherwise, the fluids will take effect on skin effectively. This therapy has a special effect on itchy skin. The improvement will be more obvious. For more information, you can ask the online doctor. They will give you a detailed introduction.
