Chronic nephritis is a common kidney disease, and its course is long, some lasting for decades, and it is prone to recurrent attacks, making it difficult to treat. So patients with chronic nephritis should not only receive continuous treatment, but also pay attention to it in their daily lives. Here are the daily precautions for chronic nephritis.
1. Prevent infection. The human body is prone to infection, with upper respiratory tract infections being more common. Prevention should be taken for tonsillitis, pharyngitis, and enteritis. These infections can easily exacerbate or exacerbate IgA nephropathy. Especially during the season of climate change, when it is cold, humid, and windy, it is important to pay attention to the temperature inside the house and keep it dry. When opening doors and windows, it is important to avoid "passing through the air". Clothing should be kept warm, and it is better to be hot than cold. Also, urinary tract infections can worsen the condition, and if they occur, timely treatment is necessary.
2. Combining work and rest to reduce psychological stress. Don't let yourself get too tired. Excessive physical labor, or vigorous exercise, staying up late, excessive sexual activity, etc., can exacerbate and recur the condition.
3. Adhere to dietary therapy. Dietary therapy is important for the treatment of chronic nephritis. Generally, high protein content should be appropriately controlled. Many patients experience a sudden worsening of their condition due to holidays, family gatherings, and eating a lot of big fish and meat.
4. Do not give up exercising. Exercise can enhance physical fitness. When the condition is not completely relieved, it is also necessary to do some exercise under the guidance of a doctor. Generally, do not engage in vigorous exercise, and it is easier to do it with a walk or brisk walk. You can exercise once or twice a day, each time for 20 to 30 minutes is more suitable.
After suffering from chronic nephritis, it is a great harm to patients. Patients should be aware of their own disease situation and maintain a stable attitude, actively seeking treatment methods. The daily precautions for chronic nephritis need to be done well, and these auxiliary methods can sometimes play a significant role.
