Kidney stone problam i have 3more stones

Male | 31

A sharp pain in your side might signal kidne­y stones. Back or abdominal discomfort occurs, too, with pain during urination. Risk factors include dehydration, salty die­t choices, and genetic pre­disposition. Drinking ample water preve­nts stone formation. Lifestyle adjustme­nts plus medical guidance facilitate the­ passing of any existing stones bothering you.

Hello Doctor, My grandmother age is 72. She has Diabetes, BP, urinary tract infection. Recently, a mild cyst found in her kidney through CT Scan. 15 days ago, her condition went serious and we joined her In hospital. Her sugar levels were 600mg/dl. Doctors treated her and dropped her sugar levels to normal. Now, she is mentally not stable and taking full bed rest. She is unable to stand or sit on her own. She is able to recognise all of us and can eat or drink on her own. But she is very week and mentally disturbed so much. She talks unrelated. Please suggest what treatment we should take for her. Thank you doctor.

Female | 72

Your grandmother faced challe­nging times. Her health conditions re­cently caused worries. Uncontrolle­d sugar levels impact the brain, e­motions - leading to confusion, and weakness. A kidne­y cyst may add stress too. Make sure grandma re­sts well, eats properly, and se­es doctors regularly to treat root proble­ms.

My friends brother has effected with stroke while getting into dialysis with oxygen mask. Kindly guide what to do

Male | 60

A stroke during dialysis can be caused by low blood pressure or the brain not receiving enough oxygen. Symptoms can include, but are not limited to, sudden weakness on one side of the body, slurred speech, and confusion. Place the person on the ground, loosen anything too tight, and call for help.

CAN I TRANSPLANT MY KIDNEY FOR FREE?

Male | 54

A kidney transplant is a major surgery that aids people with kidney problems. Symptoms such as fatigue and sickness might be the signs of kidney problems. The reasons can be illnesses or injuries that damage the kidney. Kidney transplant may be a costly affair as it includes many medical procedures. Nonetheless, some areas might provide free services; still, it is essential to find out more from local healthcare providers.

The patient have diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and has been experiencing bloating of body and milky white color urine

Female | 52

Unpleasantly, finding swelling and discolored urine can be scary, mostly with continuing kidney disease. The blame for fluid retention or alteration of kidney tasks can be the reason for these symptoms. It’s very important, therefore, to always take enough fluid, be moderate salt, and eat a balanced diet. In connection with what has been noted above, it must be emphasized that other ALDs should be taken into consideration and the need for closer scrutiny must be communicated to your healthcare provider.

I am a kidney patient GFR61 and creatinine 1.08 level CKD stage 2 now Can my kidney function improve and can my kidneys get cured completely and recover without any side effects and without any further damage by Homeopathic medicines and treatment faster

Female | 70

In CKD stage 2, the kidney function is low and can be controlled. Homeopathy may relieve symptoms such as fatigue, edema, and high blood pressure. Still, full cure and recovery without side effects are not a warranty. To keep your kidneys safe, drink water, eat a healthy diet, and take your doctor's advice.

what is creatine in kidney? My creatine is found 2.5. What to do now? I have not understood. Is it dangerous for my kidney? Please guide me.

Female | 42

Creatine is produced by the body and generally excreted by the kidneys. A creatinine level over 2.5 can indicate kidney dysfunction. Symptoms may include fatigue or swelling. Conditions such as hypertension or diabetes can lead to this problem. To support your kidneys, ensure sufficient hydration, consume nutritious meals, and adhere to medical advice.

My wife is on dialysis since dec 23,She is regular on dialysis machne thrice a week. She is not well all the time but she has to rush in emergency for treatment like vomits episodes of 20-30 any day;I want to seek that she is hardly in normal health. Will it possible to get fully fit, can she be away from high b. P. Will she be transplanted kidney.

Female | 56

The purpose of dialysis is to substitute the function of the kidneys when they fail to perform their job properly. Nausea and vomiting could be due to her current state of health. To boost her health, besides the medical team's directives, taking medications regularly, and eating a balanced diet are also necessary. A kidney transplant might be a possible alternative in the future, but it is the best option for her doctor to make the decision.
