Chronic renal failure is the “stopping point” near the end of the progression of many chronic kidney diseases, and the “end point” is uremia. In recent years, with the aging of China’s population, the incidence of diabetes, hypertension, gout and other metabolic diseases is increasing, and the secondary effects of chronic renal failure are also increasing year by year. At present, there is no fundamental solution for chronic renal failure. Although dialysis can prolong life and enable patients to return to society, it is a non-physiological therapy that brings many short-term or long-term complications; kidney transplantation at this stage has a 5 to 10-year survival rate that is not very high, and the cost after transplantation is still very expensive. The advantages of TCM in the tertiary prevention of chronic renal failure are incomparable to modern medicine, and the holistic concept of TCM and the general principle of evidence-based treatment also enable doctors to treat patients clinically in a more “live” manner, thus achieving more satisfactory results. 1, the advantages of Chinese medicine for chronic renal failure Clinical, patients have a very common idea: Western medicine is very direct, very clear; Chinese medicine is too esoteric, too esoteric. Especially kidney disease patients – long-term struggle with the disease “veterans”, they do not want to think about something they can not understand, more reluctant to wait endlessly for a very slow, tedious treatment process, think that Chinese medicine is too much trouble. But in fact, many patients with kidney disease treated by TCM have long-term stable kidney function and high quality of life. A considerable number of them were referred by western hospital specialists to try TCM. The TCM mechanism of kidney disease can be explained by kidney deficiency, dampness and heat, and blood stasis, and the ancients believed that “kidney diseases are mostly evidence of deficiency”, and kidney deficiency is also the basis of all kidney diseases. When the kidney is deficient, its essence, qi, yin and yang are insufficient, which will produce various diseases related to its function. Pathological factors such as damp-heat and blood stasis can further promote the development of kidney disease, causing the kidneys to lose drainage, retaining toxic evil and aggravating the condition. In terms of treatment, the general principles can be summarized as benefiting the kidney, clearing the blood, invigorating the blood, and draining the turbidity, etc. While treating the disease, attention should still be paid to protecting the righteous energy and caring for the stomach energy to facilitate the disease toward healing. Of course, emphasizing the advantages of Chinese medicine treatment, many times still need to use Western medicine means to better control blood pressure, blood sugar levels, etc., the organic combination of Chinese and Western medicine, in order to complement each other. 2, chronic renal failure of Chinese medicine characteristics of treatment Commonly speaking, chronic renal failure is “poison” in the body can not be excreted through the kidneys, thus accumulating the disease. Chinese medicine treatment for chronic renal failure is not only about drinking soup and bitter water, but other special treatments include intravenous Chinese medicine drip, Chinese medicine bath, Chinese medicine enema and many other external treatments. Oral Chinese medicine soup can regulate the body as a whole, while intravenous drip can play the role of activating blood, clearing profit and tonifying benefit. The purpose of herbal enema is to expel toxins from the intestines and reduce the discomfort of the body, which is a simpler, more effective and economical method. Chinese herbal baths are used to expel toxins from the skin through the action of Chinese herbal steam, and generally patients often feel relaxed and comfortable after bathing. These external treatment methods greatly enrich the treatment of chronic renal failure, combined with other internal treatment methods, can better stabilize the level of kidney function of patients.
