About kidney edema, the doctor may not tell you these things

The severity of nephrotic edema has been overlooked by many people, the doctor said so
Edema is one of the common clinical manifestations of nephropathy, many patients are due to the sudden appearance of edema, only to find themselves had kidney disease.

Regarding edema, a nephropathy doctor may not take the initiative to tell you these things.
Edema is actually very serious
Because some nephrotic edema early, coupled with doctors on urinary protein and serum creatinine showed particular concern, resulting in some patients with kidney disease, less attention to edema.
In fact, edema is very serious!
In the early stages of edema, there may only be edema on the eyelids and lower extremities. It seems worth noting that in addition to affecting the appearance and mobility, it is worth noting.
However, with the increase of edema, especially in other organs and parts of the water, the situation is different.
Especially pleural effusion, often can cause heart failure, and ascites can also cause a lot of visceral damage, these are nephropathy complications more serious.
So, once edema occurs in patients with kidney disease, doctors usually give priority to edema problems.

What is the priority to solve edema?
Some patients said that edema is not caused by a large number of leak protein Well, giving priority to solve the edema, is the priority treatment of urinary protein Bai!
Not
If it is a large number of leaky protein-induced edema, the need to do is to raise plasma albumin.
Because with the reduction of plasma albumin, blood vessels in the blood ran outside the blood vessels, leading to diuretics, "water can be discharged," simple control of urinary protein, the problem of edema and not much help.
And, the rapid control of urinary protein need hormones, but hormones may lead to water and sodium retention, swelling of the patient swollen, is not conducive to swelling.
If it is caused by electrolyte imbalance edema, you can use diuretics.
But also depends on whether you need potassium or potassium row.
Edema can completely solve it?
Since the edema is so serious, there are very clear reasons, then the problem of edema can be completely solved it?
can.
But the solution is not only the clinical treatment, but also the active cooperation of daily life.
One of the important ways to deal with edema is to use the light diet and high-quality low-protein diet that doctors are not tired of stressing.
In the development of nephrosis before uremia, due to the presence of urine, edema problem is relatively easy to solve.
To uremia, urine output dropped below 400 ml per day, may need to use dialysis to drain.

How to know the kidney is sick

from google

The kidney is one of the important organs of the human body, it is located on both sides of the body shaped like broad beans, located on both sides of the abdominal wall spine. The physiological function of the kidney is mainly the secretion of urine, the removal of body metabolites such as waste, poison and drugs, while regulating the body's water and osmotic pressure, reabsorption function to retain water and other useful substances. At the same time it is also a regulatory organ, through the secretion of hormones to regulate the body's metabolism. It is also a regulatory organ that regulates the metabolism in the body by secreting hormone substances. But how do we know if the kidneys are sick?

Symptoms of kidney disease 2: abnormal urination

Urination usually include urinary frequency, urgency, dysuria, nocturia, abnormal urine output and other circumstances. Normal urine output of 1000 ~ 2000 ml / day, with an average of 1500 ml / day or so. Whether urine volume increases or decreases, may be a manifestation of kidney disease, especially at night, polyuria is often a sign of kidney disease. The main performance are: 1, urinary frequency: increased urination frequency, called urinary frequency. When the current urinary tract (bladder and urethra) have inflammation, frequent urination, and discharge urine per discharge less. 2, urgency refers to just finished row urination and urgency to urinate, which can not wait or even wet underwear. Urinary urgency associated with dysuria, common in the bladder, urethra and prostate infections, rare in the stimulation of foreign body. 3, dysuria refers to urination urinary tract pain and burning sensation, common in bladder and prostate infections, often accompanied by urinary tract urinary frequency, urgency, this condition is called bladder irritation, lower urinary tract syndrome or urinary frequency - urination discomfort Syndrome, more common in urinary tract infection, urethral syndrome.

Symptoms of kidney disease 3: edema

What is the treatment for facial swelling from nephrotic syndrome

From google

Obvious swelling is the most typical symptom in Nephrotic Syndrome. Well then, what is the treatment for facial swelling from NS?
1. What are causes of facial swelling in Nephrotic Syndrome?
Much protein leak from the body so proteinuria results in reduced plasma colloid osmotic pressure. Thus, the fluid in the blood vessels will move into the space tissues, thus leading to edema. Swelling can occur on the face, eyelids, necks and then spread to the whole body.
Due to kidney damage, the glomeruli cannot filter excess sodium. Besides, due to disordered secretion of hormones, the reabsorption of sodium by kidney tubules increases, so the sodium level elevates. In this condition, water-sodium retention can lead to facial swelling.
2. What is the treatment for facial swelling from nephrotic syndrome?
Medicines
Diuretics, ACEI and ARBs can be used to reduce proteinuria so as to relieve facial swelling.
Limit fluid and sodium intake
This helps reduce fluid and sodium retention, which is beneficial for alleviating facial swelling.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy
This therapy is an external application and works an the kidney area. The Chinese herbs are micronized and can come to kidney lesion directly with the help of osmosis devices. The effective ingredients can improve blood circulation and enhance the kidney’s self-healing ability. Thus, GFR can be increased. Then kidney function can be improved and function well to keep water and electrolyte balance. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is the radical way for facial swelling from Nephrotic Syndrome.

Is it good for nephrotic syndrome patients to inject more and more albumin

Nephrotic Syndrome is a common kidney disease. How much do we know this disease? Most people know less to Nephrotic Syndrome so they often enter possibly errors. Here experts in Beijing Tongshantang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine introduce some common misunderstandings to Nephrotic Syndrome.

1. Primary Nephrotic Syndrome is an acute disease?

Primary Nephrotic Syndrome is a chronic disease and it is characterized by massive proteinuria, severe edema, hyperlipemia and hypoproteinemia. In most cases, the occurrence of nephrotic syndrome has no reason. Some patients may have allergies or have a recent history of vaccination. Sometimes nephrotic syndrome may happen after insect bite and bee sting. Once you are diagnosed with primary nephrotic syndrome, it is a chronic disease.

2. The more proteinuria and the more obvious swelling is, the more severe your condition is?

The severity and prognosis of the disease depends on the pathological type while only renal biopsy can diagnose your pathological type. Some patients may have obvious swelling but pathological type is mild and patients are sensitive to steroid therapy. Under this condition, the therapeutic effect is good. On the contrary, although some patients have no obvious swelling, the pathological type is membrane proliferative glomerulonephritis or severe focal segmental glomerular sclerosis and patients are also not sensitive to steroids, so the prognosis is poor. Therefore, nephrotic syndrome patients had better take renal biopsy first to diagnose the type of nephrotic syndrome and then make up a treatment plan.

3. Is it good for nephrotic syndrome patients to inject more and more albumin?

Actually it is a waste to transfusion albumin. Intravenous drip of albumin will be discharged by kidneys into urine within 1-2 days. Albumin transfusion only works for the following two conditions:

Nephrotic syndrome patients have serious swelling while diuretics cannot make swelling disappear.

After diuretics application, patients suffer from deficient plasma capacity.

4. Steroids can be stopped suddenly?

The principle of steroid is that in the beginning the dosage should be sufficient quantities. Reduce the dosage slowly and under the guidance of your doctor. The dosage should be adjusted according to your own illness condition. Only in this way can relapse of nephrotic syndrome be avoided.

Diabetic Nephropathy mostly occurs in those who have diabetes for more than 10 years

Diabetic Nephropathy mostly occurs in those who have diabetes for more than 10 years. When kidneys are damaged, patients may suffer from some symptoms. Here I introduce you some symptoms and treatment of Diabetic Nephropathy.

1. What are symptoms of diabetic nephropathy?

Swelling

In the early stage, patients usually have no swelling. A few patients may have mild swelling when they have decreased plasma protein. If there is massive proteinuria, decreased plasma protein and worsened edema, it indicates that your disease is in the late stage.

Anemia

Patients with obvious azotemia may suffer from mild anemia.

High blood pressure

High blood pressure is often to be seen in patients with kidney disease. Kidney disease aggravation is often caused by high blood pressure.

2. What is the treatment for diabetic nephropathy?

Control blood pressure

Since high blood pressure is an important factor to worsen diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, diabetic nephropathy patients should keep a light diet. At the same time, they should also take hypotensive medications to control their blood pressure.

Avoid urinary system infection

Recurrent urinary system infection can speed up the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, it is very important for patients to avoid urinary system infection.

Manage blood sugar

Studies have shown that patients with type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes should manage their blood sugar level, which plays an important role in stopping the development of diabetic nephropathy.

Consume protein

Patients in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy may leak lots of protein into urine, so they need to consume moderate protein especially some high quality animal protein. However, in the late stage of diabetic nephropathy, patients should limit protein intake properly particularly restricting low quality of animal protein intake.

Chinese medicine treatment

Clinical studies prove that Chinese medicines are effective for treating kidney disease. Diabetic Nephropathy patients can accept Chinese medicine treatment under the instruction of professional doctor.
