Nephrotic syndrome can lead to complications and abnormal movement symptoms. The occurrence of complications is often caused by long-term use of medication to treat the disease, as the body may develop resistance to drugs. Patients with nephrotic syndrome often take drugs that lose their efficacy after a period of time, so continuing treatment is not an easy task. We hope that patients and friends should be more careful.
The Suwen Acupuncture Interpretation states that "edema leads to blood stasis, and blood stasis can easily dissipate water." The "Xue Lun" also states that "blood stasis can transform water and also cause edema, which is a blood disease combined with water." Therefore, blood stasis is also another major pathological factor in nephrotic syndrome. Blood stasis exacerbates qi stagnation, impedes qi circulation, and worsens edema due to unfavorable gasification. Damp heat, turbid dampness and blood stasis are combined to cause disease and obstruct the airway. Over time, dampness toxin and water toxin are trapped in the body and accumulated in the kidney, which further damages the kidney qi and kidney yang. If the kidney qi is not firm, the essence will leak out. If the kidney yang is deficient, it will be difficult to recover or recur. Long term illness can damage yang or long-term use of products that aid yang and generate heat can lead to yang damage and yin loss. Liver and kidney deficiency or yin deficiency with excessive fire can be seen, and even qi and yin deficiency can occur. Early symptoms of nephrotic syndrome: Edema may appear, which is not as significant as simple kidney disease and can be extremely mild or even difficult to detect. Urinary protein is often above (shaking) and is often non-selective proteinuria. Hypoalbuminemia is not as significant as the simple type. Hyperlipidemia is not as significant as simple kidney disease, and may occasionally be normal. In addition to the four major characteristics of nephrotic syndrome, this disease is often accompanied by persistent or episodic hematuria, hypertension, and azotemia. At present, the preferred treatment for refractory kidney disease is adrenal cortex hormone, but long-term high-dose use of hormone can lead to adrenal cortex dysfunction, which is often one of the important reasons for frequent kidney disease outbreaks. The recurrence of kidney disease is related to the inhibition of hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis function after hormone therapy. This vicious cycle causes children to develop hormone dependence, drug resistance, and frequent episodes of nephrotic syndrome.
