Question
Hormonal treatment for nephrotic syndrome often recurs, how effective is traditional Chinese medicine treatment? I currently have three plus signs for protein and negative occult blood, and I’m not sure how to treat it.
Answer
Kidney disease is often associated with the immune system, and protein and edema in nephrotic syndrome are external manifestations, essentially due to damage to the intrinsic cells of the kidneys. Treatment needs to target the root cause to repair damaged cells and improve renal blood circulation. Our hospital adopts traditional Chinese medicine dialectical treatment, which delivers active substances of traditional Chinese medicine to the damaged area through ion infusion, clears immune complexes, repairs kidney intrinsic cells, and achieves the purpose of reducing protein and edema. This method has helped many nephrotic syndrome patients recover.
