Anuria is a medical condition in which a person’s body does not excrete the required amount of urine per day. You may pass less than 100 millimeters of urine in 24-hour during anuria. Anuria requires prompt medical intervention. At first, anuria or enuresis occurs when the kidney’s ability to produce urine decreases, which is called oliguria. Only then, later on, it progresses to anuria.
It is important for us to excrete a significant amount of urine to help pass excess fluids and waste substances from the blood. The kidneys normally produce 1 to 2 quarts of urine each day and pass out substances not needed by the body. Anuria can turn life-threatening if the treatment is not given to the patients whose kidneys are not producing enough urine. Usually, at Karma Ayurveda, a kidney treatment hospital, we recommend patients only Ayurvedic methodologies and nothing else.
What are the causes of Anuria?
Anuria is caused by conditions that impair kidney function in one way or the other. These conditions may include:
- Low blood pressure: Low blood pressure can be due to excessive dehydration, diarrhea, vomiting that decreases blood flow to the kidneys triggering Anuria, and acute kidney injury. Blood loss also results in low blood pressure.
- Diabetes: Poor glucose control leads to diabetic ketoacidosis resulting in acute kidney injury and then Anuria. Additionally, diabetes leads to diabetic nephropathy, a major factor for changes in urination.
- End-stage kidney disease: It is the last stage of chronic kidney disease in which urination changes abruptly. You may urinate too little or not at all, which leads to anuria. Such people need to consult an Ayurveda kidney treatment hospital for a healthy recovery from CKD and anuria.
- Kidney stones: It is the condition in which minerals crystallize to the stones, which are hard to be laminated through the urine. It mainly occurs when your urine is concentrated so as to allow favorable conditions for kidney stones. Kidney stones also obstruct the urine flow.
- Tumors of kidneys: Tumors may impair kidney function and block the urinary tract causing Anuria.
What are the symptoms of Anuria?
If you are experiencing the signs of low urine output even after you are taking a significant amount of fluid, consult an Ayurveda kidney treatment hospital. By consulting an ayurvedic practitioner, you may take herbal medication for the condition and follow preventive measures as per the need. Here are some of the preventive measures which can help you recognize:
Swollen foot and ankle: It may appear due to poor fluid retention in those with low kidney function.
Painful urination: This includes painful urination, inability to empty the bladder, and noticing blood in the urine, which are some of the common signs.
Generalized weakness: Due to low blood count and anemia.
Decreased appetite: This is due to a faulty blood filtration process that may contribute to a poor hunger level. When your kidney function slows down, waste accumulation in the blood can cause troublesome situations, including decreased appetite.
Diagnosis
- Urine tests to know how well the kidneys are working.
- Blood tests to know the level of Electrolyte and waste compound in the blood.
- Ultrasound to assess kidney, ureters, bladder, and prostate structure for the cause of anuria.
- CT scan / MRI tests.
- In certain cases, you may be required for renal scintigraphy.
- Kidney biopsy using a sample of kidney tissue.
Treatment
The treatment of Anuria may include herbal medications along with dialysis. Dialysis is not a cure but a measure to prevent life, so the ideology of Ayurvedic treatment is mandatory in the management of Anuria. The herbs will help revive the damaged portions of the kidneys, which include cells and tissues.
- For kidney stone treatment, Ayurvedic treatment is also good.
- Herbal medications for the management of diabetes, hypertension, thyroid as prescribed by your doctor. Uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension are often the cause.
- Lifestyle changes, such as a healthy routine, avoiding alcohol, and smoking.
