What is hydronephrosis? - Hydroneprosis Ayurvedic Treatment


Hydronephrosis occurs because of certain health conditions arising from urine build up inside the bladder. When your kidneys are not able to flush out urine properly the urine starts to accumulate in the bladder that becomes the reason for hydronephrosis.  The condition may harm one or both of the kidneys, but if left untreated may progress to renal failure. The main job of the urinary tract is to pass wastes and fluid from the body. The urinary is a by-product of the kidney's filtration process and is kept in the renal pelvis until eliminated by the kidneys. From the renal pelvis, the urine is moved down to a thin tube called ureters. The bladder does not empty as soon as it receives urine rather when it is full. The urine from therein empties slowly with the help of another long tube called urethra. 

Hydronephrosis occurs when there is a blockage in the urine flow or when the urine flows in a backward direction. This causes enlargement of the renal pelvis, another type of kidney problem which causes hydronephrosis.

The best treatment to cure hydronephrosis lies in the Ayurveda because of its capability to heal kidney problems of its roots. The hydronephrosis treatment in Ayurveda helps to exhale the blockage in the channels of the kidneys that pass urine. 


What are the causes of hydronephrosis?

Hydronephrosis is a kidney-related condition that is influenced by other health conditions that block the urine elimination process. Further the health conditions that may cause hydronephrosis are:

•  A blockage in the ureters that act as a pathway between the kidneys to the bladder 
•  Kidney stones
•  Pregnancy can also cause hydronephrosis
•  An enlarged prostate
•  Defect in the ureters from birth
•  Narrowing of the ureters
•  Tumors in the ureters
•  Scarring of kidney tissue

Hydronephrosis is a problem that can be cured by taking the right treatment in Ayurveda.  Hydronephrosis treatment in Ayurveda uses herbs and spices to widen the narrowing of the kidneys or remove a blockage in the ureters that caused urine to build up. The treatment or the medicines depend on the underlying cause, for instance, in some scarring of the kidneys tissues causes hydronephrosis while in others it is caused because of a blockage.

The early detection helps to initiate the treatment in a timely manner. The signs that should be looked during the hydronephrosis are:

•  Pain in the abdomen
•  Nausea
•  Vomiting

•  The frequent urge to urinate
•  Pressure when urinating

When the urine flow gets blocked, the chance of having urinary tract infections increases manifolds. So, if you have UTI that can multiply the chance of having hydronephrosis, it should be treated at the earliest with some home remedies. Prolonged UTI or untreated UTI can also progress to chronic kidney disease. 


How to diagnose hydronephrosis?

An ultrasound helps to know if you are at the risk of hydronephrosis or not. The purpose of conducting an ultrasound is to know if you have swelling or shrinkage in the kidneys. Your physician may also conduct an X-ray, CT scan, cystoscopy, MRI, and certain blood and urine tests to know more about kidney damage.
