Ayurvedic Management in Hydronephrosis

Hydronephrosis is a swelling of one or both the kidneys due to back flow of the urine. This condition is not a disease itself but occurs along with other disease conditions. Conditions such as kidney stones, back-flow of urine from bladder to kidney, etc can cause hydronephrosis. Approximately, 1 in 100 people are known to get affected with the condition. The treatment and home remedies for hydronephrosis are discussed below.

Hydronephrosis Treatment
Hydronephrosis condition is treated depending on the cause and severity of urine blockage and back-flow. Treatment is done to:

  • Remove the urine build-up in kidneys and relieve the pressure
  • To prevent further complications

Removing the urine build-up
In acute hydronephrosis condition, the urine build—up should be quickly drained out to prevent kidney damage. A small incision is made in the skin and a tube is inserted directly into the kidney. This makes the urine to flow outside and thus relieves the pressure on kidneys.

In chronic hydronephrosis condition i.e hydronephrosis which develops slowly, an immediate treatment is not required. But the urine build-up must be drained out. In this condition, soft tubes are inserted into the ureters to allow urine to flow out.

Treating the cause and preventing further complications

After the urine build-up is treated and removed, the cause for the condition has to be treated. Surgical treatment is performed to remove the kidney stones from the kidney or ureter. Even the abnormal parts of ureter are removed through surgery. If the junction in between the bladder and ureter is blocked, the ureter is removed from that part and attached to a different part of the bladder.
Antibiotic medications are prescribed by the doctor to decrease the pain and infections after the surgery.

Home remedies for Hydronephrosis

Listed below are few home remedies for hydronephrosis

  • Mix 2 teaspoons of olive oil with 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Consume it followed with a glass of water. This is very effective home remedy for kidney stones that would lead to hydronephrosis.
  • Watermelon is very good for patients with kidney stones.
  • Make a fine paste of pomegranate seeds and take it along with a cup of horse gram soup. It helps in dissolving the stones that cause hydronephrosis.
  • Prepare juice of radish leaves and take a cup of juice twice a day.
  • Consume tomato juice early in the morning. For better results, add salt and pepper to it.
  • Consume lots of water and other fluids.

In Hydronephrosis following Ayurvedic treatment will help a lot:
TRIN PANCH MOOL 30GM, VARUN ROOT BARK 30GM, PALAASH 30GM, RAKT-CHANDAN 30GM, PUNARVA 20GM, GOKSHRU 20GM, SHIGRU 20GM, APAMARG 10GM, SHIRISH 10GM

If this like to be a heavy exercise then you can also advise the patient to take 5gm of powder with lukewarm water twice daily. Along with -

1. VARUNADI KWATH 15ml+15mlwater BID after meals
2. PASHANBHEDADI CHURAN 3-6GM BID

Comment Hello,
My right kidney is swollen with water after Cystopic bladder surgery (Rigid Cystoscopy Hydrodistension, Biopsy & removal of a Hunners Ulcer), A Contrast Dye C T scan confirms my condition but shows no stones, mass, or lumps.

I have been advised further surgery with a stent & biopsy After what has happened I am very reluctant to proceed with this. I have no symptoms except an over active bladder, vaginal burning & stinging due to 3 years of Interstitial Cystitis which has been diagnosed

Comment
I had kidney stone and while removal in first attempt it was found that the ureter is narrow and was not accessible to break the stone. So a stent was placed for 2 weeks plus and still it was hard to reach the stone but somehow broke and removed 90%. But then doctor said the ureter is narrow and not in a good condition and further a stent is placed for 6-8 weeks. But still if it doesn't improve, what is the solution??? Is there any medication to cure the same without surgery??
