Patient's question:
I am 64 years old this year. I have always suffered from kidney failure, but recently, there has been a recurrence of bleeding tendency. Therefore, I would like to ask a professional doctor why kidney failure leads to bleeding tendency.Doctor's answer:
Mild skin abrasions are characterized by subcutaneous bruises, purpura, nosebleeds, and gum bleeding. Some female patients with uremia may experience heavier menstrual bleeding. In very rare severe cases, gastrointestinal bleeding, intracranial bleeding, and hemorrhagic pericarditis may reoccur. Generally, the bleeding tendency in chronic kidney disease patients can be corrected through adequate dialysis and addressing anemia. It is important to pay attention to appropriate physical exercise and enhance physical fitness regularly.
