Can Medicines Halt CKD Progression?

Patient's Query

ckd progression can stop or slower by taking the medicines

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is when the kidneys don't function properly. Symptoms are fatigue, swollen ankles, and trouble sleeping. CKD can be progressive and it may get worse over time. To delay the effects of the disease you can use the medicines your nephrologist has prescribed. These medications not only help the kidneys but also alleviate the symptoms. It is important to stick to the prescription and follow the right instructions to prevent the drugs from causing more damage to your kidneys.

I am 36 years old, a few days ago I had severe pain in my back and stomach, I got sonography done and kidney stones were detected. Now whenever I take a long breath, it hurts, I feel mild pain all day long, there is slight bleeding in the phlegm also

The back and abdominal discomfort you’re experiencing could be associated with kidney stones, which may also lead to irritation. The pain while breathing, along with blood in your phlegm, suggests a need for further evaluation. These signs, while often manageable, should not be overlooked. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your healthcare provider for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment. Staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous activity can be beneficial in the meantime.

Sorry to hear that your mother is struggling with her health issues. Protein in the urine, stomach discomfort, high blood pressure, and diabetes are notable ailments. Her kidney problems can also be explained by these symptoms. Your mother must go to the hospital as fast as possible to receive a proper diagnosis and a treatment plan. Please arrange an appointment with a health professional.

Last month, the urine tube leading from my left kidney became clogged, which resulted in the insertion of a DJ stent to relieve the blockage. On November 23rd, I went to have the stent removed, only to discover that it had shifted out of position and was now stuck. As a result, the tube is clogged again. Could you please advise me on a solution?

Male | 26

The misplacement of a vessel may result in stenosis and in effect the existing noll of urine. Some of the other dangers are likely to be infection or simple kidney treatment.
