Skin problems in chronic kidney disease

Skin involvement in chronic renal failure is characterized by a multitude of different aspects. Often pruritus, xerosis cutis, hyperpigmentations, and actinic elastosis occur. These symptoms tend to alter and are aggravated relatively quickly when chronic renal insufficiency leads to compulsory dialysis treatment.
Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis is a devastating condition associated with the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents in patients with CKD. At present, no therapies are available for this complication. Preventive measures include use of iodine-based contrast agents, particularly in patients with CKD stage 4 and 5. If gadolinium contrast is necessary, administration of low volumes of the more stable macrocyclic ionic types of gadolinium-based contrast agent is advocated. Hemodialysis following gadolinium exposure might offer benefits but evidence is lacking.
The following natural remedies all show good effects on itchy skin.
Full bath therapy. As its name refers, this therapy is like taking a bath. Patients are required to enter the medicinal soup that made with special Chinese herbs that have the effect of discharging the toxins. The toxins will be removed through sweating and urinating. The medicinal soap will replenish some necessary substances to tonify the skin. So itchy skin will be well relieved.
Hot Compress Therapy. The finely shattered herbs will be applied on bilateral Shenshu acupoints. With an osmosis device, the herbs will be permeated into kidney lesions, achieving such goals: eliminating the toxins, recovering the original qi. The kidneys will work as normal. The problems such as excessive toxins, dry skin, high phosphorus level can all be solved. So itchy skin can be treated and it cannot occur again.
