We should all know that chronic nephritis is a type of kidney disease with a very lingering course. If comprehensive health care is not done during the onset of the disease, it will lead to a further prolongation of the course. So to minimize the course of chronic nephritis, patients need to actively take care of themselves in all aspects.
1、 Healthy diet
Dietary health care has an undeniable significance in the treatment of chronic nephritis. Patients should fully recognize that some foods in daily life can increase the burden on the kidneys, such as watermelon. Some patients involuntarily consume these foods in their daily lives, which can increase the burden on the kidneys and easily lead to kidney deterioration. Therefore, patients with chronic nephritis must pay attention to fasting.
2、 Avoid excessive fatigue
If the patient is always in an overworked state, it can easily lead to an increasing burden on the kidneys, which is not conducive to rapid recovery. So for patients, it is important to remember not to overwork and pay attention to appropriate rest. Especially for patients with obvious edema or severe illness, bed rest can not only increase diuresis but also reduce dangerous complications such as heart failure, hypertension, and encephalopathy, thereby preventing further deterioration of renal function.
3、 Preventing infection
The risk of infection for patients with chronic nephritis is self-evident, so patients should actively strengthen their defense against infection. Infection can be divided into two types: one is from the outside world, and the other is from one's own bacteria. Both of these can lead to the deterioration of chronic nephritis to varying degrees, causing serious damage to patients. Therefore, patients should be vigilant.
The above health measures are essential for the cure of chronic nephritis, as they can minimize the patient's course of disease and help them overcome the health damage caused by chronic nephritis as soon as possible, thereby promoting the recovery of kidney function.
