Kidney diseases are mostly chronic disease, which develops slowly and in most
of time are refractory, lasting for a long time. So preventing it is becoming
more and more important and necessary.
Prevention measures
1. prevent cold or flu.
When people are suffering from cold or flu, pathological bacteria or virus
are invading our body, which will combine with the antibody in our body, forming
immune complex. As we mentioned, most kidney diseases are caused by immune
disorder. The deposition of immune complex in the kidney will lead to excessive
immune response, thus causing damage to the healthy renal intrinsic cells and
leading to a series of symptoms such as protein in urine, red blood cells in
urine and so on.
2. choose proper medicine
Once people are suffering from cold or flu, we will see the doctor and get
some medicine. Be aware that some medicines are harmful to the kidney. Before
taking it, ask the doctor for advice or read the instruction carefully. We can
surf the internet to find out by ourselves whether the medicine is bad for the
kidney. Actually, in clinic, kidney disease doctors both in China and abroad
have found out that both some western medicine and Chinese medicine can do harm
to the kidney. What’s worse, if some people get other disease and take in
medicine for a long time, they can even get uremia.
3. don’t hold the urine
Urinate in time. Holding urine can lead to the accumulation of bacteria and
get kidney infected.
4. prevent and treat high blood pressure and diabetes.
Our kidney consists of millions of micro-glomus. Both high blood pressure and
diabetes can lead to the sclerosis of blood vessels in the kidney. With time
passing by, the damage will become serious, thus causing Hypertensive
Nephropathy(High Blood Pressure and Kidney Disease) or Diabetic Nephropathy. So it is quiet necessary to observe blood
pressure and blood glucose.
5. have urine and blood test every year
When there is something wrong with the kidney, the level of microalbumin will
change first.
6. Women who find kidney disease during pregnancy should consider abortion
for pregnancy can worsen the burden of the kidney. There will be two person
using two kidneys, which may lead to the deterioration of kidney disease.
