90% of kidney can be saved if the disease is identified in time: study

A study has shown that if kidney disease is identified in time, 90 percent of kidney can be saved. A study conducted on 500 kidney patients at Veer Hospital has shown this.

The study was conducted by the same hospital. Consultant Prada Ravin Bahadur Basnet, head of the hospital's urosurgery department, informed that in a study, 5  470 out of 100 people's kidneys could be saved if they were treated in time.  He said that only 30 of them have unsalvageable kidneys.

He says that due to lack of public awareness, they could not be saved due to lack of regular checks. According to him, most kidney diseases are caused by stones. 5 In a study of 100 people, 65% of the patients were found to have kidney damage due to stones. Similarly, studies have confirmed that 15 percent of congenital kidney patients, 10 percent of kidney cancer and 4 percent of other infections cause kidney damage. 

Stones block the passage of urine, and if the bladder does not pass urine, the kidney becomes swollen and the kidney deteriorates . In this way, even if one kidney is swollen, the other kidney is working, so the patient does not know that the kidney is swollen, so the doctors say that the other kidney will deteriorate. 

Prada Basnet said that although the opening of the kidneys to the urinary bladder is closed at birth, the kidneys deteriorate between the ages of 20 and 30. One to four percent of people in the world have only one kidney.

Eating less water, diabetics, alcohol causes kidney damage . Taking "painkiller" medicine (ibuprofen, nimesulide) on its own can cause kidney damage.

Chief consultant Prada Basnet informed that 220 out of 5 hundred people with kidney failure came to the hospital for the first time. According to the study, women have more kidney problems than men. According to him, kidney damage is one and a half times more common in women than in men.

He said that in order to save Mirgaila, he has to change his lifestyle. Drink three liters of water a day, reduce obesity, eat plenty of fruits, and regularly check the kidneys.
