Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop lately. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. How should dietary therapy be used for nephrotic syndrome in children?Doctor's answer:
Nephrotic syndrome is a clinically challenging condition to treat. It is recommended that you adhere to scientific medication use, maintain a balanced diet, and manage rest and activity appropriately. Steroids cannot be stopped at will; it is advised that when the dose is reduced to one tablet, you should continue treatment at a specialized traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nephropathy department. This condition is nephrotic syndrome, and the use of prednisone acetate is recommended. Currently, there may be bronchitis due to poor immunity.Suggestions:
It is recommended to take a chest X-ray. Antibacterial treatments such as azithromycin and piperacillin can be used. For coughing, ambroxol hydrochloride can help with mucus relief. The diet should avoid greasy and spicy foods, reduce salt intake, and avoid exposure to cold drafts. You may also consult a pediatric respiratory department.
