Nephrotic syndrome is a chronic kidney disease that has a long onset time and is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to pay special attention to some daily life details to prevent the recurrence or continuous development of nephrotic syndrome. Combining clinical treatment with daily diet, the following precautions should be taken during the treatment of nephrotic syndrome
1. Avoid various infections, especially respiratory and digestive tract infections. Because these infections lead to recurrent and frequent kidney disease, it is not conducive to disease control and complete cure of kidney disease.
2. Low intake of sodium salts. Especially in summer, severe cases can cause hyponatremia syndrome and even shock and convulsions. Using low salt (2 grams per day) commercially available soy sauce contains approximately 2 grams of sodium salt per 10ml, which not only avoids the occurrence of hyponatremia but also improves appetite. So it's just low sodium salt, not sodium salt.
3. If a patient with kidney disease has an infection, blind use of antibiotics, especially nephrotoxic antibiotics, should be avoided, and excessive or unreasonable use of diuretics should be avoided. Blindly seeking quick diuresis often leads to hypovolemic shock, hypercoagulable blood, and thrombosis, so it should be done slowly rather than using rapid methods, which can lead to other diseases.
4. Patients with kidney disease have strict dosage and course of treatment for the use of hormones, and should not reduce or stop medication midway. Some cases are highly sensitive to hormones, and once treated, proteinuria decreases and edema disappears. At this time, if "stop as soon as it improves", blindly reducing the dosage or stopping the medication based on superficial symptoms often leads to recurrent or recurrent conditions. So during the special period of treatment, it is necessary to use medication according to the doctor's instructions, and when changing the dosage, it is also necessary to obtain the doctor's consent before stopping or reducing the medication.
5. Patients with kidney disease must regularly check their renal function and urine routine during or after treatment to determine the drug effect and changes and recovery of the condition, so as to adjust the treatment plan at any time according to the progress of the condition
6. Patients with nephrotic syndrome should also pay attention to their diet during the treatment process, and choose and mix their diet according to medical advice to promote treatment effectiveness and speed.
The above 6 points must be paid attention to during the treatment of nephrotic syndrome. Although these factors may not directly lead to rapid deterioration of kidney disease, failure to pay attention to these factors can lead to slow treatment of kidney disease, poor effectiveness, and even other diseases. Therefore, during the treatment of kidney disease, it is necessary to pay attention to the above 6 points and adhere to the above 6 nephrotic syndrome precautions.
