Why do some people get uremia? Uremia equals ESRD( end stage renal disease)
or chronic kidney disease stage 5, in which, kidney fails and stop removing
waste and extra fluid, thus causing a series of problems such as edema, high
serum creatinine and so on. Because of the strong compensation ability, in
China, when people have discomfort and then go to Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease hospital, they are told they
have got stage renal disease! It is so shocking. Is there prevention for it? Why
do some people get stage renal disease? The following points can help you be
alert to it.
1. high blood pressure
High blood pressure is a one of leading factors which can lead to damage in
the kidney. Blood pressure is the force of blood against the blood vessels. If
blood pressure is higher, heart will work harder, which will cause damage to the
blood vessels throughout the body. If the blood vessels in the kidney are
damaged, kidney will stop removing toxins and extra fluid, which causes edema
and so on. In China, one out of ten people have high blood pressure and 15% of
people with high blood pressure will develop into uremia. So, please monitor
your blood pressure.
2. diabetes
Diabetes is another leading cause of uremia. The most typical feature for
diabetes is high blood sugar, which will damage the blood vessels in the body.
If the blood vessels of kidney are damaged, they will fail to filtrate, secrete
and so on. So diabetics please be alert to kidney damage, which is one serious
complications.
3. renal glomerular nephritis
Most renal glomerular nephritis will develop into uremia if the damage can
not be stopped. For example, renal glomerular nephritis lead to protein in urine
and protein in urine in turn will worsen renal glomerular nephritis.
4. western medicine
Every coin has two sides. The same goes for western medicines, which can
damage the body if taken for a long time.
