Patient's question:
Hello, doctorMy wife is almost due to give birth in a few days. She goes for check-ups every week. After today's check-up, the doctor said there is high protein in her urine. What does this mean?
Additionally, my wife said her abdomen has been itchy for a long time. Could you please explain what this is and what the implications are?
I look forward to your reply urgently. Thank you, doctor
First follow-up question: Doctor, could you please explain this in more detail? What are the specific reasons? Thank you, doctor.
Second follow-up question: Thank you, doctor.
Doctor's answer:
The condition you described is primarily caused by the presence of dermatomyositis, which leads to these symptoms. For such issues, it is recommended to use topical urea cream for treatment and observation. Additionally, it is important to engage in appropriate local massage and avoid excessive heat and sweating. Avoid consuming spicy or irritating foods. Generally, doctors advise women with signs of pregnancy-related gynecological diseases to pay attention to keeping warm and avoiding coldness. Furthermore, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
