HERBAL REMEDIES FOR OBSTRUCTIVE UROPATHY BY BABALAWO OBANIFA- Obanifa extreme documentaries
In this current
work Babalawo Obanifa will document some of the effective herbal remedies
available in Yoruba Herbal Medicine for the treatment of Obstructive Uropathy
which some people also in lay man diction refer to as Urinary tracts obstruction
or Ureteral obstruction. In Yoruba herbal medicine parlance, the term use
for description of this condition is known as Aisan Seto- Seto. The aim
of this work is to give the reader general educational information on Obstructive
Uropathy (Urinary tracts Obstruction) as well as various herbal formula available
in Yoruba herbal medicine for the treatment of such conditions. However, it is instructive for any body who
have access to this work to note that medical information made available in
this work are for education purpose, and should not be regarded as a substitute
to the service of qualified trained health practitioners where service of one
is required.
One of the leading
works that give detail concise comprehensive information about Obstructive Uropathy
is the work of Erica Roth titled “Obstructive Uropathy”
The work have been Medically reviewed by University of
Illinois-Chicago, College of Medicine and publish on www.healthline.com. According to Erica
Roth, Obstructive uropathy is when your urine can’t flow (either partially
or completely) through your ureter, bladder, or urethra due to some type of
obstruction. Instead of flowing from your kidneys to your bladder, urine flows
backward, or refluxes, into your kidneys.
The ureters are
two tubes that carry urine from each of your kidneys to your bladder.
Obstructive uropathy can cause swelling and other damage to one or both of your
kidneys.
This condition can
affect men and women of any age. It can also be a problem for an unborn child
during pregnancy.
Obstructive
uropathy can occur due to a variety of factors. Compression can lead to damage
to your kidneys and ureters.
Temporary
or permanent blockages in your ureter or urethra, through which urine exits
your body, can result from:
- injuries such as a pelvic fracture
- tumor mass that spreads to your kidneys, bladder, uterus, or colon
- diseases of the digestive tract
- kidney stones trapped in your ureter
- blood clots
Nervous
system disorders can also cause obstructive uropathy. This occurs when the
nerves responsible for bladder control don’t function properly. The use of
neurogenic drugs to control an overactive bladder can also cause obstructive
uropathy in some cases.
An
enlarged
prostate is a frequent cause of obstructive uropathy in men. Pregnant women
may also experience a reversed urine flow due to the additional weight of the
fetus pressing down on their bladder. However, pregnancy-induced uropathy is
very rare.
The
onset of obstructive uropathy can be very quick and acute, or slow and
progressive. You’ll feel pain in your midsection on one or both sides of your
body. The level and location of pain varies from person to person and depends
on whether one or both kidneys are involved.
Fever,
nausea, and vomiting are also common symptoms of obstructive uropathy. You may
experience swelling or tenderness in the kidneys as urine flows backward into
your organs.
A
change in your urinary habits can indicate a blockage in your ureters. Symptoms
to look for include:
- difficulty passing urine
- a slowed stream, sometimes described as a “dribble”
- a frequent urge to urinate, especially at night (nocturia)
- the feeling that your bladder isn’t empty
- decreased urine output
- blood in your urine
You
may have a decrease in the amount of urine you expel if just one of your
kidneys is blocked. Usually, both kidneys need to be blocked to impact urine
output.
Symptoms in unborn children
Obstructive
uropathy can be a problem in an unborn fetus. One of the signs of obstruction
in an unborn baby is a level of amniotic fluids in the womb that’s lower than
normal. Urine is one of the components of amniotic fluid. A fetus with
obstructive uropathy is unable to urinate outside their body. This leads to a
drop in amniotic fluid volume, which can lead to fetal or birthing
complications.
Diagnosis of obstructive uropathy
Your doctor will
diagnose obstructive uropathy with an ultrasound. Scans of
your pelvic region and your kidneys will show if urine is backing up into your
kidneys. Imaging tools can also point out blockages to your doctor.
Treatment for obstructive uropathy
Removing the
obstruction from blocked ureters is the main goal of treatment.
Surgery
A surgeon will
remove masses such as cancerous tumors, polyps, or scar tissue that forms in
and around your ureters. Once they clear the blockage from the affected ureter,
urine can flow freely into your bladder.
Stent placement
A less intrusive
form of treatment is the placement of a stent in the blocked ureter
or kidney. A stent is a mesh tube that opens up inside your ureter or blocked
area of your kidney. Stenting can be a solution for ureters that become
narrower from scar tissue or other causes.
Your doctor will
place a stent in your ureter with a flexible tube called a catheter.
Catheterization is typically performed with the use of numbing medication while
you’re awake. In some cases, you may be sedated for the procedure.
Treatment for unborn children
Your doctor may be
able to treat fetal obstruction in the womb in some cases. Your doctor may
place a shunt, or drainage system, in your unborn baby’s bladder. The shunt
will drain urine into the amniotic sac.
Fetal treatment is
usually performed only when the baby’s kidneys appear to be irreversibly
damaged. Most often, doctors can repair kidney function and blocked ureters
after the baby is born.
Long-term outlook
The outlook for
obstructive uropathy depends on whether one or both kidneys are affected.
People who have an obstruction in only one kidney are less likely to encounter
chronic uropathy. Those with recurring obstructions in one or both kidneys are
more likely to experience extensive kidney damage. Kidney damage may be
reversible or can remain unchanged based on a person’s overall health.
