Conventional treatment for FSGS
FSGS is the abbreviation of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis which can cause many problems like high blood pressure, proteinuria, swelling, low protein level in blood and high blood lipid. Conventional treatment for FSGS include:
-slat restriction and diuretics like furosemide. This is to deal with swelling.
-medicines for proteinuria like aldosterone antagonist.
-hypotensive drugs like ACE inhibitors are also needed and this is to control blood pressure in normal range.
-other steroids and corticosteroids may also be used based on patient’s specific illness condition.
All in all, conventional treatment for FSGS aims at its symptoms. These medicines are helpful, as they can bring illness under control quickly, but FSGS relapses easily if treated in this way. What is worse, illness progresses to kidney failure stage finally.
Treatment for FSGS patients with low kidney function
The “four plus seven” treatment in our hospital is a purely natural treatment, which can take great effects to improve the low kidney function for FSGS patients. The “four” means a bottle of Maikang Composition, an oral Chinese Medicine, a dose of external application and a basin of foot bath with Chinese medicine. The “seven” refers to seven external applications, including Steaming Therapy, Hot Compress Therapy, Foot Bath, Circle Therapy, Medicated Bath, Enema Therapy, Frangrance Therapy. These treatments have a great help in expanding the blood vessels, discharging harmful waste, and enhancing the immune system for patients, thus the low kidney function can improve a lot.
