Patient's question:
Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've been experiencing some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Could you please tell me how traditional Chinese medicine treats central diabetes insipidus in children?Doctor's answer:
Diabetes insipidus refers to a group of symptoms caused by insufficient secretion of vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone, which is known as central or pituitary diabetes insipidus. Its characteristics include polyuria, polydipsia, hypotonic urine, and low specific gravity urine. If the condition is severe, it is recommended to take the patient to a local regular hospital or a Grade III-A hospital for diagnosis and treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is not very effective, and Western medicine treatment is the main approach.
