Catching a cold is a common phenomenon in winter for many people, which can
remit spontaneously. And in most of time, we do not pay attention to a cold.
However, for chronic kidney disease patients, it will give a deadly hit for
them. Why?
As we mentioned in the above articles, kidney disease is a kind of immune
disease. When antigen or pathological virus or bacteria invade us, the immune Immunotherapy of our body will set up, which means that the intrinsic immune
cells will start to work, fighting against the antigen or pathological virus or
bacteria which invade us. Accordingly, these intrinsic immune cells are called
antibody. The fight between antigen and antibody is called immune inflammatory
response. During the immune inflammatory response, the antigen and antibody will
embrace each other and their combination is called immune complex. Generally,
the immune complex will discharge out of the body together with blood
circulation. However, if the immune complex can not discharge out successfully
as usual, they deposite onto one area of kidney and stay there such as renal
tissues, renal intrinsic cells. As we know, this deposition on kidney is not
proper and welcome for kidney. On one hand, kidney does not need the deposition
at all. On the other hand, long time deposition will lead to pathological
damage, which is called kidney disease. The body is particular or weak, which
can not effectively clear away the immune complex timely. So the immune complex
will deposit onto the kidney, and then a series of symptoms appear.
Next, we will explain why catching a cold will worsen the kidney disease.
When virus or bacteria which can cause infection and lead to a cold invade the
human body, the antibody will fight with them again and form new immune complex
again as well. The former one has not been cleared completely, the new one comes
into being as well, which worsens the condition of patients with chronic kidney
disease.
For example, if we push a wall in a newly built house, we can not push it
down. However, if a wall is has a long history and has been damaged, in this
case, if we push it, it may fall down easily. So it is quiet necessary to
prevent us from catching a cold.
In the former passage, we explained why preventing us from catching a cold is
so important. In this passage, we will mainly introduce for you the methods
which can help us far from a cold.
Firstly, patients with chronic kidney disease have relatively weak immune Immunotherapy and low resistance to the virus or bacteria which invades. So
keeping exercising and taking part in some proper activities can help build up
the body and enhance the immunity of the body. The activities for patients with
chronic kidney disease can choose are walking, playing Taiji, Yoga, and so on.
Remember that the exercise or activity should be moderate, because excessive one
will make patients with chronic kidney disease tired thus being caught by
cold.
Secondly, in winter, patients should keep warm and remember to wear more when
we plan to go out. When we are in house, the temperature is higher, and when we
are out, there is a big gap between the temperatures. In this case, when
adjusting ourselves to the change of temperature, we are easily to have been
caught by a cold.
Thirdly, to prevent ourselves from catching a cold, chronic kidney disease
patients can boil vinegar in the house and keep the vinegar in the house. In
this case, the molecules of vinegar will diffuse and kill the bacteria and
virus. The procedures are as follows: firstly, pour enough amount of vinegar in
a container. Then add water to it. The ratio of water and vinegar is 2 to 1.
Boil them. When it is boiled, keep it being boiled for several minutes.
Fourthly, patients with chronic kidney disease can also have raw garlic over
the meal. In China,garlic has been a necessity on the table of Chinese people.
It is known that garlic can kill the bacteria and virus, which can enhance the
human immune ability. The report says that garlic contains alliin and allinase.
These two kinds of materials can interact each other, and form garlicin, thus
killing bacteria and virus.
