Hydronephrosis treatment in homeopathy

Preliminary discussion: Today I am going to discuss in detail the treatment of hydronephrosis in homeopathy. Along with this, I also discuss what hydronephrosis is. Symptoms of hydronephrosis? Homeopathic treatment of hydronephrosis? I will discuss the prevention and management of this disease.

It is a pathological condition in which one or both kidneys become swollen due to the accumulation of urine. This problem can be due to various reasons, and it can cause painful symptoms in the body. To get rid of the disease, one must know about its causes, symptoms, and management.

What is hydronephrosis?

Hydronephrosis means the accumulation of water inside the kidney. Water accumulates in the kidneys when urine cannot be drained properly from the kidneys. This causes the renal pelvis to dilate and swell. The problem can occur in one kidney or both kidneys. Hydronephrosis can be a blockage in the flow of urine or other problems related to the urinary system.

Causes of Hydronephrosis:

There can be many reasons for the occurrence of the disease. A major cause is kidney stones. These stones prevent urine from passing out of the kidney. As a result, the kidney swells. Other causes include urinary tract infections (UTI), tumors, ureteral block, etc. Also, congenital abnormalities and structural defects can cause this disease. In some cases, hydronephrosis is also seen due to the backflow of urine from the ureter to the kidney, which is medically called vesicoureteral reflux.

Symptoms of hydronephrosis:

Symptoms may vary from patient to patient, depending on the cause and severity of the disease. However, pain in the kidney region may be a common symptom. There may be frequent urge to urinate, incontinence, bloating, etc. This can be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and fever if there is an infection in the body.

Diagnosis of hydronephrosis:

In order to diagnose the disease, it is necessary to know the patient’s past history as well as some other physical examination of the patient. This must be accompanied by some imaging tests. Usually, an ultrasonogram can be used to determine the condition of the patient’s urinary system, kidneys, etc. In addition, CT scans and MRIs can more clearly picture the urinary tract and obstructions.

Treatment of hydronephrosis:

Treatment of the disease depends on the cause, complications, and symptoms of the disease. Treatment of hydronephrosis should always be based on the cause. If you know the reason for the accumulation of water in the kidney, then the patient will recover by applying medicine accordingly. If the disease is due to kidney stone disease, along with medication, lifestyle changes should be made for the patient. In severe cases or if the stone is very large, it must be removed surgically. If associated with an infection, treat accordingly. Homeopathy has very good treatments to cure any type of infection.

At the same time, the cause of the disease must be removed so that it cannot recur.

Management of hydronephrosis:

Drink enough water to maintain good kidney health and prevent kidney stones. In order to continue the treatment plan, you have to keep in regular contact with the doctor, Along with living a healthy life, eating healthy, eating less salt, and doing physical exercise, the overall health of the kidneys will be good, and it will be easy to recover from this disease gradually.

Prevention of hydronephrosis:

Even if the disease is cured, the prevention of the disease should be emphasized so that it does not come back again. A healthy lifestyle is essential for overall good kidney health and healthy urinary system organs. Hydronephrosis can be prevented by drinking enough water, eating a moderate diet, getting enough exercise, and getting prompt treatment for any urinary tract infection or disease.

Who has hydronephrosis?

Hydronephrosis can occur at all ages and in all individuals. But in certain cases, the risk of developing the disease is high.

Some babies are born with structural abnormalities in the urinary system. As a result, these children may be affected by hydronephrosis at a very young age. In young children, hydronephrosis is usually caused by vesicoureteral reflux and ureteropelvic junction obstruction.

Kidney stones: People with a history of kidney stones are at higher risk of developing this disease. These stones obstruct the normal flow of urine. As a result, urine accumulation can cause kidney swelling.

Urinary tract infection (UTI): Untreated urinary tract infections and repeated urinary tract infections increase the risk of developing hydronephrosis.

Urinary Tract Tumors: Hydronephrosis can occur if there is a structural obstruction or narrowing of the urinary tract or due to a tumor of the urinary tract.

Pregnancy: During pregnancy, the growing uterus puts pressure on the urethra. As a result, the flow of urine can become obstructed and lead to hydronephrosis. In most cases, it occurs in the last part of pregnancy.

Also, genetic predisposition and a history of pelvic surgery may increase the risk of developing this disease.

It is important to know that these situations

Hydronephrosis increases the risk, but apart from these factors, anyone can develop the disease from any other cause.

Homeopathic treatment of hydronephrosis:

There is a very good and effective treatment for Hydronephrosis disease in homeopathy. I have found in my personal experience that hydronephrosis is completely cured with homeopathic treatment. Medicines that we will always consider in this disease are:

Apis Mel: Apis Mel is a very effective medicine for this disease. It is more effective in attacks on the left-sided kidney. The patient is hot and thirsty. The patient will be cured by using the medicine in accordance with such symptoms. I have seen a complete cure of the disease in a small child only four days old by applying ‘Apis Mel’ medicine to only one symptom of trouble in the left kidney. Finally, I will discuss how I treated that patient.

Apocynam: This is also a good medicine for hydronephrosis. The patient is very thirsty, and the patient is cold.

Arsenic Album: The patient is very restless, jittery. Very thirsty. Any irritation is relieved by heat. Fear of death is high. Arsenic medicine will cure this disease according to these symptoms.

Argentum nitricum: The patient is very hot. The patient is very sweet. Argentum nitricum, with all these symptoms, will cure the disease quickly.

Apart from the above-mentioned medicine, any other medicine applied to the symptoms will cure the patient. Such as sulphur, medorinum, syphilinum, thuja, etc.

Personal experience with hydronephrosis:

Last 27/2/2024 List I was called for treatment of a four-day-old baby. I was told over the phone that a 4-day-old baby cries profusely before urinating. The arms and legs are folded and the body trembles, then the baby stops crying when it urinates. From birth, the baby cries like this before urinating.

I went to see the child. I went and saw the baby’s ultrasound report. Hydronephrosis has been noted in reports. There is mention of a problem in the left kidney. The baby even cried once in front of me and peed.

Hydronephrosis

I took the Apis Mail medicine with me. I had the 0/1 power (50 milicimal) of potency.

As a rule of eating, I said Take a cup of water. Add 5 drops of medicine to it. Then dip a finger in that water. That finger should now be touching the baby’s mouth. Twice a day, morning and night. (In the case of breastfeeding babies, I usually give the medicine to the baby’s mother. But here, the baby’s mother was taking a lot of medicine because of the seizure. Understanding this situation, I said that it was okay for the baby to take the medicine. But when someone is feeding the baby, he must wash his hands well.)

Later, I got the news that after taking only two doses of the medicine, the baby stopped crying and did not cry for once.

This patient was scheduled for another ultrasonogram a week later by the previous physician.

However, by God’s infinite grace, the patient was completely cured with the benefit of homeopathic medicine.
