Dialysis is a lifesaving treatment for those with end stage renal disease (ESRD). Occasionally, patients may have side effects from the treatment (both peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis. Well then, how to ease the discomforts during dialysis?

Why dialysis will cause side effects for dialysis patients?

Although dialysis can help prolong patients life, after all, it cannot repair kidney damage and improve renal function. In the condition, due to no improvement, patients are prone to suffer from adverse effects. In addition, without the sufficient dialysis, patients are also prone to experience the side effect, like headaches, low blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, fluid overload, muscle cramp, itching and so on.

Well then, how to relieve these discomforts during dialysis?

To be frank, different side effects need to take different treatments and measures. If you suffer from following condition, you can take the corresponding measures.

Low blood pressure--medication for high blood pressure should usually not be taken before treatment, unless the doctor prescribes it that way.

Muscle cramps-- to avoid cramping, be sure to stick to your fluid and sodium restrictions every day. Maintaining a balance between your dry weight and fluid gains and avoiding foods that make you thirsty and give rise to higher fluid intake are your best defense against muscle cramping.

Nausea and vomiting--if the condition persist, treatment may include giving medication for relieving the discomforts.

However, these methods just help ease the discomforts, but cannot relieve the conditions from the root. Here, aside from these mentioned above, alternative treatment to dialysis called Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is recommended to you. It not only can help control or relieve the related symptoms, but also can help repair kidney damage and enhance renal function from the root. What’s more, it can help dilate blood vessels, promote blood circulation, anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation and degrade extracellular matrix and so on.
