Nephrology

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

You've gotten to the fifth stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Your kidneys barely work at this advanced stage. Exhaustion, swelling, and chills frequently occur. Hypertension, diabetes, or other illnesses can lead to this condition. Stem cell treatment isn't typically used for CKD. Discussing treatment choices with your nephrologist is highly recommended for Stage 5 CKD management.

I can sell my kidney I need money

Male | 25

I understand that you're feeling the financial strain, but selling a kidney is not a safe or legal way to solve money problems. Our bodies need both kidneys to function properly. You see, kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste and excess fluids from our blood. If you were to sell one, you'd be putting your health at serious risk. Instead of considering such drastic measures, I recommend seeking support from financial advisors or local resources that can help you manage your finances better. There are also organizations that provide assistance during tough times.

My GFR rate is 58. 73 years old. I was prescribed Herperax 800 for 5 days 4 tablets each. Whether the kidney would have been affected and if so, how long will it take to recover to original position

Male | 73

A GFR level of 58 indicates that you are in Stage 3 kidney disease. Herperax 800 has kidney side effects. Kidney problems may be indicated by the urine output changes and the swelling. To help your kidneys recover, drink plenty of water, avoid medications that harm your kidneys, and follow up with your doctor for monitoring. It can take time for the kidneys to improve, but following these steps can help.

I am 45 yrs old woman with one kidney.i have a stomach pain and I have taken pudina Hara liquid several times but there is no any effect on the pain. Just have taken higene tablet. I want to ask you that can I take colinol tablet as I have only one kidney, does this colinol tablet affect the kidney. Please give your appropriate suggestions.

Female | 45

The stomach can hurt in many ways such as due to excess acid, digestive problems, or infections. Since the pudina Hara and Hygiene tablet did not help, it is good that you are cautious about taking new medicines with one kidney. Colinol tablet may affect your kidneys. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional before taking any new medication due to your unique situation. Health and safety should always be the main priority. Seek an opinion from a nephrologist before trying a new medication.

Unpleasantly, finding swelling and discolored urine can be scary, mostly with continuing kidney disease.

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 48 years old. There is albumin (protein)+1 present in my kidneys. I am experiencing a fever as well as pain in my back. I have hypertension and diabetes as well.

Female | 48

According to what you have said, it may be a sign that there is an infection in one or both of the kidneys or even some sort of damage if the protein in your urine is accompanied by other symptoms like fever, backache, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Having protein present within urine isn’t normal at all, especially when taken together with these other signs. So you must see a nephrologist as soon as possible to have this checked out.
