Dr. Zhao Xinju
In patients with chronic renal atrophy, treatment options—including pharmacotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), or acupuncture—may be selected based on the severity and characteristics of the atrophy. Renal atrophy may cause symptoms such as abdominal distension, oliguria, and urinary frequency; it may also predispose patients to sepsis and, in severe cases, renal failure. Patients with renal atrophy are advised to consume foods that promote digestion and nutrient absorption and to ensure adequate rest in daily life.
