Our kidneys are strong and weak.
It is said that it is strong because the kidney often has serious problems before it has symptoms!
It is said that it is weak because it is easy to be hurt by some behaviors!
It is normal for us to be anxious when we are ill, but we should learn to turn anxiety into power, into power to live healthier, and know how to cherish the power of life! For patients with kidney disease, the prerequisite for this motivation is to learn to avoid the behaviors that cause damage to our kidneys.
Now let's see which behaviors are easy to damage our kidneys!
Take medicine indiscriminately!
The first reason is that kidney damage caused by drugs is too common.
The two most important organs of metabolic drugs in our body are liver and kidney. We can often see that the words "people with liver and kidney dysfunction should be cautious" are written on the instructions of some drugs, because when liver and kidney metabolism is abnormal, some drugs cannot be taken or need to be taken in reduced doses.
For patients with kidney disease, drugs must not be taken randomly! Don't take the medicine you can't take. Take the medicine you need under the guidance of a regular doctor. I can't hear that this medicine is good for the kidney. Take it. That medicine is good for the kidney. Take it. This is very taboo.
Many drugs can cause kidney damage. Patients with nephrosis should try to avoid such as aminoglycoside antibiotics as neomycin and gentamicin, antipyretic and analgesic drugs as indomethacin, various contrast agents such as hypertonic contrast agents, gadolinium-containing contrast agents, traditional Chinese medicine such as Aristolochia manshuriensis, Aristolochia aristolochia, Clematis lucida, Tetrandra tetrandra, Rosalinden, etc. For those drugs and health products with unknown ingredients, we need to be more vigilant!
The above are just some examples. Every year, many patients will still suffer from acute renal failure after taking medicine. Chronic kidney disease will worsen after taking medicine. Some patients can recover, and some patients will suffer from permanent irreversible damage. It is necessary to be careful when taking medicine.
2 Frequent repeated infection
Intraoral infection such as tonsillitis, pulpitis, gastrointestinal infection such as acute gastroenteritis, urinary system infection, and any part of the infection can induce the aggravation of kidney disease. Therefore, patients with kidney disease should pay attention to preventing infection.
Patients often ask: I just love colds. What should I do? It is the key to prevent colds and strengthen the physique. Take some time to exercise every day, such as walking, jogging, playing tai chi, working and resting regularly on time, and not picky about food. These behaviors can benefit a lot. For details, please see what the devil is a common cold?
If infection has occurred, inform your doctor to control the infection in time. If infection causes gross hematuria, hydration and alkalization of urine are also required.
3. Poor living habits
Poor living habits are not conducive to the disease, such as eating too salty, eating too much high-calorie and high-fat food, smoking, and often holding urine.
We recommend a low-salt diet for patients with kidney disease, because low-salt can indeed delay the progression of kidney disease and help to reduce blood pressure. Eating too much high-calorie and high-fat food and not moving is a common living habit of modern people, which leads to increased blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipids, and ultimately further aggravate kidney damage. At present, in the United States, diabetes induced nephropathy has become the first major factor in end-stage renal failure. Smoking can lead to hardening of our blood vessels, which of course includes the blood vessels of our kidneys. For patients with kidney disease, it is recommended not to smoke.
