With uremia develops, there is an increasing number of people suffering from
itchy skin, which torment people. What’s worse, some uremia patients feel itchy
all over the body. Although there is no rash and other signs, uremia patients
feel upset and excited with no reason. Indeed, itch can not threaten the life,
which however, has influenced the life quality. To solve this problem, many
patients tried many kinds of medications, do physical treatment and even
ultraviolet radiation treatment. They even solve it by washing and so on,
however, all of which take no effect.
There are many reasons which cause itchy skin. For uremia patients, itchy
skin is usually caused by Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Failure dermatitis and SHPT. The former can improve
with dialysis. Complete dialysis, hyper permeability peritoneal dialysis or
hemofiltration can relieve itchy skin obviously. For those who have complete
hemodialysis, itchy skin may be connected with the Gley's glands hyperfunction.
Besides itchy skin, uremia patients can also have painful bone, joints and
muscles and so on. Some patients cut some part of Gley's glands or use a large
dosage of active vitamin D so as to inhibit the secondary secretion of Gley's
glands. When the level of Gley's glands hormone declines, itch can relieved a
lot. Some also try immunotherapy on the basis that many kidney diseases are
caused by immune disorder, which is a comprehensive therapy combining
traditional Chinese medicine and western blood purification technology, which
can assist the core therapy: traditional Chinese medicine.
