Good Evening! My brother got both the kidneys damaged. He has undergone dialysis 2 times within last month. Doctors say transplantation would be the final solution. I have got his test reports scanned with me.Is there any other solution to this kidney problem? Your suggestion in this regard will be highly appreciable.Manoj YYYY@YYYY
Hello Manoj and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist, i can understand your anxiety. Once the kidneys have failed, the only options are dialysis or transplantation. Dialysis is an artificial kidney. It does all the function of a kidney. A kidney transplant is the better option in the long term. Maintainence dialysis is done twice or thrice a week. It can be done as a hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis(CARD). If you've any other doubts, send it to me as a direct question. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
