Treatment of nephroptosis and the effectiveness of exercise therapy for kidney prolapse at different stages. The role of exercise in the treatment of nephroptosis

This is the omission of one or both kidneys; at the same time, the renal pedicle, consisting of the renal artery, renal vein, nerves, lymphatic vessels and ureter, is lengthened; venous congestion appears and the outflow of urine is disturbed. The most common complication of nephroptosis is pyelonephritis. Dull back pain and moderate arterial hypertension are possible.

Wandering kidney- offseting the kidney inside the abdominal cavity to any other side. This is a different disease than nephroptosis, with more complications due to the unpredictability of kidney movement. In a set of exercises for a wandering kidney exercises with twisting and turning the body are not included.

The physiological (normal) position of the kidneys is provided with a fixing apparatus:

1. renal bed, which is formed by the diaphragm, the square muscle of the lower back, the transverse muscle of the abdomen and the large psoas muscle;
2. shells of the kidneys:

• fibrous capsule (easily separated from the substance of the kidney),
• fat capsule of considerable thickness, creating a fat pad,
• renal fascia (in the form of a bag open downwards consists of two sheets that cover the kidneys and are attached to the spine).
• Between the renal fascia and the fibrous capsule there are strands of fibrous connective tissue penetrating the fatty capsule.
• parietal peritoneum in front.

3.abdominal muscles maintaining normal intra-abdominal pressure.

Causes of kidney prolapse.

Normally, the kidneys are mobile during breathing, changing the position of the body, and physical stress. This feature is necessary to reduce the compression of the kidneys by other organs.

Pathological mobility of the kidneys occurs when

• rapid weight loss, when the fat capsule "melts" and the kidney is left without support;
• insufficient elasticity of the renal capsule (in diseases of the connective tissue and age-related changes in the body);
• violations of posture and weakness of the abdominal muscles (for example, after childbirth);
• back injuries in the lumbar region, falls from a height;
• sudden lifting of significant weights;
• some diseases of the organs adjacent to the kidneys: liver, large and small intestines, spleen, stomach overflow.

Now we understand that the kidneys are a vulnerable organ and must be protected.

It is the main method of treatment if surgery is not required.

Therapeutic gymnastics is performed lying on a shield with a raised foot end by 30 0.

Angle-adjustable shield

Jumping, running and lifting weights are excluded. Wearing a bandage only in II and III stages of the disease only in special cases when it is necessary to insure against even greater omission of the kidneys (for example, when traveling by transport, where vibrations affect the body), since wearing a bandage helps to relax and atrophy of the posture and abdominal muscles which is extremely undesirable in this disease.

Therapeutic exercise for prolapse of the kidneys It is aimed at strengthening the abdominal muscles, posture and hips.

• with I degree of nephroptosis during exercise, do not use a shield with a raised leg end;
• at the II degree, raise the foot edge of the shield by 15 0;
• with III - by 30 0 in relation to the floor

because the higher the foot end of the shield is raised, the less the load on the abdominal muscles.

A set of exercises for lowering the kidneys must be learned by heart gradually. Start doing the exercises 2-3 times, not all at once, gradually mastering the whole complex. Avoid sudden movements.

Remember that you cannot do without physiotherapy exercises. Get busy every day. Now physical education should become important part your lifestyle.

R Recommendations for the prevention of stagnation of urine in the kidneys.

1. Raise the legs of the bed on which you sleep by 10 - 15 cm (on a stable bar).

2. Before going to bed and before putting on a bandage, do exercises from the Birch or Plow yoga health system (if you can, of course).

11. The doctor may prescribe a massage of the back (or only the lower back), abdomen and thighs; or segmental massage on the lumbar region. Kidney prolapse exercises are best done after a massage for a better therapeutic effect, if possible. Massage is carried out for 10-20 procedures 3-4 times a year.

12. Be sure to cure diseases internal organs if present, and do not overeat, so that a full stomach does not contribute to the displacement of the left kidney.

13. Do not try to lose weight quickly - it is dangerous not only with kidney prolapse!

From this article, you learned how the kidneys are held in their physiological position, the causes of kidney prolapse, and received recommendations for physiotherapy exercises for nephroptosis. I hope that you have a desire to practice right now.

Well, that's it, my dear patients. Have patience, perseverance, determination and perseverance. Do exercises every day. Learn to enjoy and enjoy physical therapy, and then it will bring you much more benefit.

Nina Petrova.

A disease such as nephroptosis has become increasingly common these days. No one is immune from the disease: neither people of retirement age, nor young people. For the treatment of a pathological condition, it is necessary to perform special exercises for nephroptosis or, in especially advanced cases, resort to surgical intervention.

Characteristics of the disease

Kidneys without pathologies were fixed in the renal bed. With nephroptosis, the kidney may move to the abdomen or pelvis. As a result of this, the vessels are stretched and narrowed, the ureter is bent and the blood flow in the organ is disturbed. As a result, a favorable atmosphere is created for retaining urine in the organ, various inflammatory diseases develop.

Pathology can be either the right kidney or the left. The following factors can provoke the disease:

• A sharp loss of kilograms in a short time;
• Injury to the abdomen or lumbar;
• During gestation and after the baby is born;
• Sedentary work;
• Weight lifting.

On initial stage the formation of pathology, the organ is groped through the anterior abdominal wall when inhaled. On exhalation, it is already palpable in the hypochondrium. At the first stage of the onset of nephroptosis, the patient develops pulling, aching sensations in the lumbar region from one side. They are felt in a standing position, lying down the pain goes away.

At the second stage, the entire kidney comes out of the hypochondrium in a standing position. When the patient lies down, the organ returns to the desired area. The pain syndrome increases and goes to the abdominal area. When a person lies down, the pain recedes.

At the last stage of the formation of the disease, the symptoms are aggravated. The kidney is displaced from its zone on a permanent basis, it may even descend into the pelvis. Pain accompany the patient all the time. It does not disappear even in a prone position. The condition worsens after physical exertion, blood clots may be observed in the urine.

It is better to start treating kidney prolapse in the early stages of the development of the disease. Then it will be possible to avoid surgical exposure and resort only to physical education.

What is physical education for nephroptosis

Many patients are interested in whether it is possible to play sports with nephroptosis? Will this not lead to even greater displacement of the internal organs down? Highly qualified specialists believe that physical education, one of the most effective methods fight against pathology.

Exercise therapy for nephroptosis is aimed at strengthening the ligaments and muscle tissue through daily gymnastics. It gives effective results. Exercise therapy is also recommended after surgery for nephroptosis. Special exercises will fix the result of the operation.

Lesson Requirements

Nephroptosis and sport are two concepts that are closely related. But in order for these methods of therapy not to be harmful, it is imperative to follow some rules:

• It is forbidden to lift weights more than 2 kg;
• With pathology of the 2nd degree, you need to wear a bandage. But it is recommended to wear it only when playing sports. Constant wearing of a bandage leads to a weakening of muscle tissue;
• After exercises performed lying on your back, it is recommended to take a knee-elbow position for 10-15 minutes. This will improve urination and blood circulation;
• If you have a disease, you can not do exercises in which you need to run, jump. Twisting and jerky movements can only aggravate the condition.

In case of illness, it is necessary to eat rationally and properly. The fat layer helps to keep the organ well in the desired area.

Gymnastics treatment

There is a special therapeutic gymnastics according to the Bubnovsky method. The essence of the complex is the implementation of movement therapy and kinesitherapy. According to the Bubnovsky method, when lowering the renal organ, the following exercises must be performed:

• In the starting position, lying on your back, raise the lower limbs and press them to the body. Initially, the load should be minimal. Over time, we increase the number of exercises.
• You need to lie on your stomach. Extend your arms in front of you. The legs should be straight, the socks are pressed. Raise your upper and lower limbs at the same time. Stay in this position for as long as possible. Repeat five to eight times, each time increasing the time of the pose.
• For the next action, the stomach is drawn in. The patient lies with his stomach on the ceiling. With his feet, he seems to be pedaling on a bicycle, but only lying down. Repeat for two or three minutes.
• Lie belly down. Gather your hands in a lock at the back of your head. Bend your legs at the knees. Tilt them to the right, then to the left. The action is repeated in each direction 8 times.
• We repeat this exercise in different directions on the exhale. Lying facing the ceiling, bring your right knee to the opposite elbow. After that, exhale and relax. Repeat the same on the opposite side. Repeat the action until tired.

To better understand how the exercises are performed, you can look at "Exercise therapy when lowering the kidney in pictures."

Yoga classes

Yoga, as well as exercise therapy for nephroptosis, is good for healing. When performing an exercise (any of the above), it must be borne in mind that all movements are performed slowly, without much effort. For kidney disease, do the following:

• Pose "Peacock". Bend your knees and sit on your heels with the fifth point. The elbow joints rest against the abdomen at the level of the navel. We touch the floor with our forehead. At the same time, the elbow joints “go” into the stomach, but do not move apart. We stay in this position for several minutes until the body gets used to it. After that, we raise our head, “connecting” our back. Keep your breathing even. The weight of the body is transferred to the front of the body. The duration of the exercise is 3 minutes or more.
• Pose "Staff". Sit on the floor or on a mat. Stretch your legs forward. Connect the socks together. With a deep breath, tilt your torso forward towards your toes. The whole body must be involved. If you do not feel pain, then you can clasp your feet with your hands.

There are many more yoga postures that help cure kidney prolapse. Yoga with exercises for the press helps to strengthen not only the kidney organ, but also the heart and bladder. But remember, everything is good in moderation. Don't do anything that could harm you.

The main set of exercises

Therapeutic exercise for kidney prolapse (nephroptosis) contains the main set of exercises. The action of which is aimed at strengthening muscle tissue and resuming normal blood flow. Exercise must be done daily. Lying on your back, do the following exercises:

• The legs are joined together, while straight arms lie along the torso. On inhalation, the arms through the sides are reduced to the lock at the back of the head.
• On the exhale, pull the legs down, brushes up.
• We open the castle. Put your hands palms up. In this case, the carpal position of the hand: widely spaced. With even breathing, we raise our legs perpendicular to the horizontal surface.
• As you exhale, spread your arms to the sides. We try to press the pelvis to the floor. We hold the legs at 90 degrees.
• When exhaling, we tilt the legs to the right side, twisting the torso completely. At the same time, the head should turn in the opposite direction, the left shoulder should not be torn off the horizontal surface. The lower limbs are lowered until there is a feeling that you need to raise them back. It is better to fix them at a height of 10 - 12 cm above the right palm. When inhaling, slowly return the legs back.

Morning work-out

Exercise therapy for nephroptosis (prolapse of the kidneys) must be done daily. Physical education should be done in the morning. Charging should take half an hour:

• In a supine position with your stomach to the top, slightly bend your knees. Push your belly forward while inhaling. As you exhale, draw in. Repeat five to ten times.
• Lying on your back, lift each leg up in turn. Five to eight times each.
• Get into a knee-elbow position. Do the exercise "evil" and "good" cat. Strongly arch the spine up, and then bend in reverse side. After that, you need to return to the starting position. Repeat the exercise four to six times.
  With any of the listed movements, you strengthen muscle tissue.

Preventive exercises

As mentioned earlier, nephroptosis can occur in everyone, so it is recommended to perform physical exercises for preventive purposes. Gymnastics helps not only with kidney pathology, but also with many other diseases.

But it must be taken into account that physical exercises when lowering the kidney must be performed strictly according to the instructions. Legs and arms should be at the right height, exercises for the abdominal muscles should not cause pain, and so on. In order for the exercises to bring effective results, you also need to eat right, keep healthy lifestyle life, to be in the air more often, to do a special massage.

Important information for those who do exercises:

• Despite the fact that such gymnastics is considered the safest, classes should not be done immediately after eating;
• Classes should be regular. Not a single day can be missed;
• If you feel pain during the exercises, you need to stop the exercises and urgently ask the doctor's opinion on this matter;

In addition to therapeutic exercises, classes in the pool also help with nephroptosis. Long walks in the fresh air.

Omission of the kidneys is a disease that can be treated qualitatively with the help of special gymnastics. If the disease is not prolonged, then doctors recommend, first of all, wearing a bandage, as well as a set of exercises for lowering the kidney. These exercises are necessary to strengthen all the muscles of the abdominal zone. Gymnastics is prescribed only to those patients who have addressed the problem for the first time. It is also important that the patient does not feel such pain that will disrupt the usual lifestyle and daily routine.

Physical education is also prescribed for those who have radiography and showed that the kidneys are functioning normally, only there are minor changes. It is best to do the exercises in the morning, after waking up. Exercise therapy for lowering the kidneys is designed to strengthen the muscles of the abdomen and back. Needed, of course, individual approach in each case, since often the first symptoms appear during pregnancy, and these are completely different exercises.

It is important! During the exercise, the kidney must be in place, so you should wear a special fixing bandage.

Preventive exercises for prolapsed kidneys

There are several sets of exercises for lowering the kidneys. First of all, you should pay attention to the constants that must be done both for treatment and for prevention.

These exercises when lowering the kidney are considered very effective:

1. You need to lie on your back, raise both legs a little, without bending your knees, do not raise your back. In this position, you need to keep your legs for as long as you can.
2. It is also very good to do the “bicycle” exercise twice a week.
3. It is necessary to lie on the floor, raise your legs and back up - this is called a "candle". Stay in this state for 12 minutes. In this case, the kidneys will be in the opposite direction relative to the ground, and the sand will be removed more easily. After that, you need to lie on one side and lie down for 30 minutes. Then stand still, raising your legs (12 minutes), and lie on the other side and lie down like this for 30 minutes

Morning exercises with kidney prolapse

There is also morning exercises, which should be done every day for 20-30 minutes. Almost all exercises are done lying on your back.

And so, morning exercises:

• First you need to lie down just on your back, then bend both legs at the knees and take deep breaths and exhales. During exhalation, you need to bulge your stomach strongly. This exercise should be done ten times.
• Lying evenly on your back, you just need to alternately raise (slowly) straight legs, only this should be done 7-10 times each leg.
• Bend your knees, lying on your back, and alternately pull each leg closer to your stomach. Do six times with each leg.
• Perform the exercise "bicycle" for 2 minutes.
• First you need to lie on your back, then bend both legs at the knees and place the ball between the knees. Squeeze the ball for 8 seconds, then release. You need to do this 5 times.
• Stretch your legs and on the inhale lift them up, and on the exhale, on the contrary, lower them down. Do ten times.
• Lying on your back, bring your knees together, stretch your legs. Raise your legs up a little, without unclenching them, and then, while inhaling, spread them. On the exhale, on the contrary, cross your legs. Repeat 5 times.
• Lie on your right side, straighten your legs and lift your left leg up. Do this 8 times. Do the same while lying on your left side.

Therapeutic exercise: its effectiveness

Omission of the kidneys is a disease called neprophthosis. If you have stage 1 non-proftosis, then you can treat it by doing physiotherapy exercises.

So, physiotherapy exercises:

1. You need to lie flat on your back, stretch two arms directly along the body, while legs should be straightened. The legs should be bent in turn, and this gymnastics is done for 1 minute.
2. Lying on your back, you should spread your arms to the sides and take a deep breath. Then exhale and return your hands (slowly) to their original position.
3. Lying on your back, you should bend two legs at the knees, slightly raise them above the floor and do the “bike” exercise for 2 minutes.

5. You need to lie on your back, stretch both arms directly along the body, and bend the legs at the knees and put both feet on the floor. Raise your legs in order, as if taking steps.
6. It is necessary to lie on the right side, stretch both legs. Then you need to slowly raise (while inhaling) your left leg, and as you exhale, slowly lower it. This should be done for 1 minute. Then you need to roll over on your left side and proceed to the same lifts of the right leg.

Gymnastics: simple exercises

Therapeutic exercises for prolapse of the kidneys should be to strengthen the muscles of the abdominal zone:

1. It is required to lie on your back, stretch two legs, stretch your arms along the body and take a deep breath. Hold your breath for as long as possible and exhale. Do this exercise for about 1 minute.
2. Remain in the starting position, when you inhale, then raise your legs up, and on the exhale, on the contrary, lower them down. You need to repeat this five times.
3. Lying on your back, both legs should be extended and knees brought together. Raise your legs slightly above the ground and push them apart while inhaling, and cross them while exhaling. Repeat the exercise several times.
4. In the starting position, place a folded pillow under the lower back. Inhale to bend your right leg, exhale to straighten your right leg. Then repeat the same with the left leg. Do the exercise several times.

Finally, stretch your back muscles.

In order to strengthen the abdominal muscles, you need to do a simple exercise:

• It is necessary to lie flat on your back, bend two legs at the knees so that they are not far from the buttocks. Hands should be placed behind the head. Raise the body should be up, only so that your chest rises, but at the same time, the lower back should not come off the floor. Then you should, lying on your back, raise your legs so that the shins are parallel to the floor, and the thighs are perpendicular. Raise the chest in this position, only the number of times should be half as much as in the previous exercise. Then you should lie on your stomach, hands on the back of your head and also raise your chest as many times as you did in the previous exercises. Over time, you can increase the number of times, only gradually.
• To massage the kidneys, you need to stand up after the first set of exercises on your legs and bend back and forth and to the sides. Become straight, feet shoulder-width apart, and feet should remain parallel to each other. Do tilts to the right and back. At this time, the right hand should slide along the back of the leg, and the left should rise up. The arm needs to be lowered as far as possible, so you can do several body rolls. After that, you need to get up and do the exercise to the left side. You can do it five times. By doing this complex, the kidneys are compressed and stretched, which has a positive effect on their condition.
• Special set of exercises

This therapeutic set of exercises is done in the morning on an empty stomach. To do this exercise, you need to lay a warm soft rug.

Drink half a glass of warm water and you can start:

• Lie on your back and bend your knees. During execution, it is necessary to carefully breathe with the diaphragm - inhale deeply and exhale.
• In the starting position, put a roller under your back. Raise each leg in turn. Do this 9 times.
• Lie on the floor, just bend your knees, then put both feet on the floor. While inhaling, you need to slowly raise your right leg, and then slowly lower it as you exhale. You also need to do it with your left foot.
• Lying flat on your right side, you should raise your left leg, and lying on your left side, slowly raise your right leg. You need to do it several times.

Complex classes of therapeutic physical culture in the development of nephroptosis are among the main varieties of conservative methods of treatment. Specially designed kidney prolapse exercises, recommended by most medical professionals, will strengthen the muscles in the back and abs, and help return the vagus organ back.

The pathological level of kidney mobility is called, exceeding the course of its mixing by 2 cm with a deep breath and 3.5 cm with rapid breathing. In a healthy human body, the kidney is fixed by the muscles of the press, lower back, as well as with the help of the diaphragm and renal membranes.

Omission of the kidneys in women can be caused by the presence of the following factors:

• a sharp decrease in body weight;
• weakening of muscle fibers in the abdomen and abs during childbearing, numerous pregnancies and in the postpartum periods;
• consequences professional activity, especially from sellers, hairdressers, etc.;
• frequent physical activity, accompanied by heavy lifting;
• as a result of a traumatic fall on the back;
• other back injury.

Education causes dull and pulling pain in the lumbar region and hypochondrium.

An advanced form of nephroptosis can cause the formation of venous stasis and a violation of urine output, which is fraught with the development of pyelonephritis.

General rules for performing exercise therapy exercises

Exercises for nephroptosis allow you to most effectively strengthen the muscle fibers in the back and abdomen. To achieve the desired result, therapeutic exercises should be carried out in the morning hours in a daily mode of execution. And in order for the results to be preserved over many years of life, it is necessary that these exercises become one of the components of all life activity.

Classes can be carried out on a rug spread out on the floor or a thick bedspread. If there is a bed in the room with a high degree rigidity, then exercise therapy with nephroptosis can be performed on it. It is desirable to wear only comfortable clothes that do not restrict movement.

Classes must begin with an ordinary warm-up, which allows you to warm up the muscle fibers.

The duration of all exercises can vary from 20 to 30 minutes. At the same time, it is recommended to start with no more than 10 types of exercises, each of which must be repeated in 2-3 sets. Over time, the load must be increased by adding new types of gymnastic warm-up and increasing the number of repetitions.

Gymnastics when lowering the kidneys must be carried out in compliance with a slow pace of movement, without sharp turns and twisting of the body. Therapeutic physical culture is not recommended to be carried out on a full or empty stomach. After eating, at least 30-40 minutes should pass.

In the event that during physical education there is a sharp feeling of dizziness or darkening in the eyes, it is necessary to stop classes and give the body a rest. With the repeated formation of such symptoms, it is recommended to contact a qualified specialist.

Warm up

It is important to know that the bulk of the exercises for nephroptosis should be performed in the supine position. Therefore, the warm-up part begins with assuming a position lying on your back. Raise, straightened legs at the knees in an upward direction, with an accompanying inhalation with intensification and exhalation with relaxation at the moment of lowering the legs. Move slowly, without jerks.

The next exercise from the warm-up part is twisting in different directions. To do this, you need to raise your hands up, lying on the floor and clasp them in the lock. Raise your legs parallel to the floor surface and carefully perform the elements of twisting the legs alternately in one direction and the other, not forgetting the moments for relaxation.

Therapeutic complex exercise therapy

A set of exercises, which are performed from a prone position:

• Raise both legs clenched together. Raising your legs, you need to inhale, lowering - exhale. The number of repetitions is from 6 to 10 times.
• One of the most popular exercises is cycling. It is necessary to simulate pedaling for two minutes.
• The next exercise: bent legs at the knees must be pulled to the chest, taking a breath, and when exhaling, return to the starting position. The number of repetitions is 8-10 times.
• Slow pelvic lift maximum level height, and the main load should be located on the shoulder surface and feet. The optimal number of lifts is 6-8 times.
• Exercise - half bridge. Lying on your back, rest your feet on the floor surface, bending your knees. Exhaling, raise the pelvis from the floor surface, and slowly lower it while inhaling. Repeat at least 8 times.
• Put your hands under your head, closing them in a lock. Perform inclinations of bent legs at the knees alternately to the right and left sides, while trying to reach the knee joints to the floor surface.
• Place a small pillow or roller under the lumbar region of the back and alternately bend the legs at the knees.
• Lie on your side and do lifts with a straightened free leg at least 6-8 times. Then roll over to the other side and do the same exercise on the other leg.

Varieties of gymnastic exercises from a position lying on one of the sides:

• Exercise is walking. It is necessary to perform imitating movements, as when walking in everyday life. To do this, you need to first take your free hand forward and the leg back, then vice versa, the leg forward and the arm back.
• To restore both the right kidney and the left one, it is recommended to perform lifts of the left leg and arm with short-term fixation, lying on the right side, and also on the left side.

• Lifting opposite limbs: simultaneously you need to raise the left arm and right leg, then vice versa the right arm and left leg. The number of lifts is at least 8 times.
• Lying on your stomach, bend both arms at the elbows, placing them in front of you. Lift the left leg bent at the knee while inhaling and pull the arms to the left elbow, exhaling to take the starting position. Do the same for the right leg. The number of repetitions is at least 6 times.
• Perform the exercise "Boat". To do this, it is necessary to simultaneously raise straightened legs and arms from the floor surface, taking the form of a “curved boat”. With slight sensations of swaying, it is necessary to try to maintain balance for one to two minutes.

A set of knee-elbow exercises

The knee-elbow position for performing exercises in the development of nephroptosis is also quite popular and common.

Having taken a knee-elbow position, it is necessary to bend the back down, then bend it upwards, as a cat does when it is stroked on the back, and then suddenly it will suddenly see its hated enemy - the dog. Repeat such movements with the back 12-15 times, this will remove excessive fatigue and stress from the back and increase the likelihood of the vagus organs returning to their place.

After that, you can perform a fairly simple balance exercise. To do this, while in the same knee-elbow position, simultaneously raise opposite limbs and fix this position for 1–2 minutes. First, for example, you can raise your right arm and left leg off the floor, stand like that for a while, then change position by raising your left arm and right leg.

Performing exercises in the knee-elbow position will help improve the processes of urine discharge, and also remove excess tension from the muscle fibers of the back.

If the second stage of kidney prolapse develops, then many specialists may prescribe the wearing of a special bandage. Wearing it regularly can lead to relaxation of the muscle fibers in the back and abdomen, so to avoid this, you need to wear it correctly.

Lie on your back, exhale completely and fasten the bandage, only with this technique of using the bandage can unwanted complications be avoided.

In most cases, the diagnosis of the development of nephroptosis is made by absolute chance. The most effective and safest ways to prevent and treat it are exercises from the complex of therapeutic physical culture, the regular implementation of which will return the wandering organs to their place, strengthen almost all types of muscle fibers, and all health in general.

With nephroptosis, the structures that keep the kidney normal are weakened or atrophied: fascia, diaphragm, abdominal muscles, lumbar muscles, own fat capsule. Therapeutic exercise in this pathology is one of the most important components included in the complex treatment of the disease. Properly selected exercises will help return the body to a physiological position without surgical intervention.

  The main causes of nephroptosis

  The reasons that cause nephroptosis in men can be completely different:

  Nephroptosis is also congenital. If the kidney is not lowered by more than 2/3 of its size and its function is not impaired, then no serious manipulations should be performed.

  Regular exercise therapy will help prevent various complications.

  

  Indications and contraindications for the appointment of exercise therapy for kidney prolapse

  More often there is a omission of the right kidney than the left. Nephroptosis of the 1st degree is cured by gymnastics.

  The descent of the kidneys of the second stage is characterized by the fact that they protrude from the hypochondrium into the abdominal cavity along their entire length, therefore, wearing a kidney bandage and physiotherapy exercises are used.

  Upon reaching grade 3, surgical intervention is required, since the organ is completely displaced into the abdominal cavity.

  You can not do exercise therapy when:

  • cardiovascular pathology;
  • acute or exacerbations of chronic inflammatory diseases;
  • trauma to the skull or spine;
  • diseases of the hematopoietic organs or the blood system;
  • neoplasms of a malignant or unknown nature.

  Stones in the organ are an absolute indication for surgical treatment for nephroptosis. spend in this case Exercise therapy is not recommended, as it can cause an exacerbation.
