How To Cure Nephritis

July 20, 2009


What is nephritis?

It is the swelling of the kidneys. Normally it is the duty of the kidneys to filter the food and waste products. When it gets swollen they are unable to filter the food and separate it from the wastes and these get accumulate in the kidneys. Thus excess water and waste settle in the kidneys and the essential protein and blood are lost through the urine. In some cases it is not so severe and it goes unnoticed; however if it is severe then it can lead to kidney failure.

It can affect anyone of any age group and hence one must be aware of the fact that they must get regular check ups done. In some cases it is treatable with medication once the cause is determined. However; if it is caused by the HIV virus or due to lupus nephritis then dialysis is the only form of treatment and it is not always 100 percent successful. The quicker the diagnosis is done the more effective the treatment will be.

What causes this disorder?

Unfortunately in some cases the disorder is heredity and in this case there is nothing that you can do to prevent it. Also, infections like hepatitis, HIV, skin cancer and diabetes can lead to nephritis. High blood pressure and fluctuating pressure can also be a cause.

How to treat the condition?

Drug treatment along with herbal remedies can help to treat the condition; however one must not expect to witness any miracles overnight. Homeopathic medications will help to aid the functioning of the kidneys and aids the urinary tract infections. Fenugreek seeds when boiled in water and consumed help to heal the swelling on the kidneys and help to filter waste from wanted products in the kidneys. Barberry is known for its anti septic properties and immune strengthening properties. It thus helps to aid the swelling and has no side effects since it is a natural herb.

One must make it a habit to drink plenty of water as this helps to flush out the toxins from the body. Water also helps to reduce the inflammation on the kidneys.
