Can chronic nephritis exhibit physical characteristics? I believe many people are not completely clear. Below, we will introduce the clinical symptoms of chronic nephritis, understand the clinical symptoms of chronic nephritis, and preliminarily determine whether there is chronic nephritis. The treatment of chronic nephritis as soon as possible is very helpful.
1. Hematuria: Hematuria can be divided into macroscopic hematuria and microscopic hematuria. Hematuria with the naked eye is visible to the naked eye, with a urine color resembling meat washing water, cloudy and red in color. Some children may have blood streaks or clots in their urine; Microscopic hematuria can only be observed under a microscope, with more than one red blood cell count per high-power field of view. Hematuria is the most common symptom in most children with chronic nephritis. Of course, there are many reasons for hematuria, and nephritis is just one of them. Therefore, when unexplained hematuria is found, timely medical attention should be sought. Perform relevant tests according to the doctor's advice, and if necessary, perform routine urine tests to rule out the possibility of renal hematuria.
2. Eyelid edema: The main reason for the early occurrence of eyelid edema in chronic nephritis is that the kidneys' water excretion and regulation function are damaged, causing an increase in water and sodium in the child's body. Excessive water accumulates in loose tissue in the body, and the eyelids are the area with more loose tissue. The characteristic of eyelid edema is obvious when waking up in the morning and decreasing after activity.
3. Chronic patients generally experience hypertension: Does chronic nephritis exhibit physical characteristics? For chronic patients, the occurrence of hypertension is a gradual process, and the increase in blood pressure can be persistent or intermittent. The degree of hypertension, characterized by an increase in diastolic blood pressure (above 12.7kPa), also varies greatly among individuals, with mild cases being only 18. 7—21。 3／12。 7—13。 3kPa, even exceeding 26.7/14.7kPa in severe cases.
4. Increase of foam in urine: the increase of foam in urine is mainly caused by smaller foam, which is interconnected and cannot be dissipated for a long time, indicating that there is protein in the urine of children and the tension is high. Of course, the accuracy of this symptom is poor. If one does not have a certain level of medical knowledge, they are often overlooked. The simplest way is to go to the hospital to check urine to rule out the possibility of proteinuria. Because the earliest changes in chronic nephritis are in urine.
The above content is the physical characteristics of chronic nephritis that we will introduce to you. We hope it can help you understand the symptoms of chronic nephritis in a timely manner. If you have the symptoms mentioned above, please go to the hospital for relevant examinations in a timely manner to achieve timely treatment.
