Minimal change disease (MCD) can burst at any age especially in children. Since patients’ medical condition changes from person to person, their prognosis is quite different. Proteinuria and swelling are two typical signs and can affect patients’ prognosis. If you happen to have this disease, you must want to find out natural remedies to improve the prognosis of minimal change disease.
Minimal change disease prognosis
Glomeruli are tiny kidney filters, and they are responsible for filtering blood. If patients have minimal change disease, their glomeruli are normal under light microscope, but some disorders develop in glomerular epithelial cells under electron microscope.
MCD is one common cause of Nephrotic Syndrome, and patients have a good prognosis. 70% of children with this disease still have normal kidney function and urine test, and 90% of adults with this disease can have normal kidney function for more than 10 years. According to this, as long as patients’ medical condition is controlled very well, their prognosis will be improved successfully.
Natural remedies to improve the prognosis of minimal change disease
Low sodium and low protein are basic dietary principles for patients with minimal change disease. Of course, the detailed diet plan should depend on patients’ illness condition. Then, patients are suggested to consult more about their diet plan online.

Medicated bath can be done at either home or hospital. Put some herbs into bath water, so the effective ingredients of herbs can permeate into the body via skin. This therapy can not only manage MCD complications but also prevent the relapse of minimal change disease.
