How is primary nephrotic syndrome treated?

Patient's question:

Always uncomfortable, feeling bad, can't sleep. How should primary nephrotic syndrome be treated?

Doctor's answer:

1 General treatment: Patients with severe hypoalbuminemia and severe edema should rest in bed. After the general edema disappears and the general condition improves, they can return to bed and engage in light exercise.
2 Symptomatic treatment: Administer albumin to aid digestion and use diuretics to reduce swelling.
3 Main treatment: Corticosteroid therapy. If corticosteroid treatment is ineffective, cytotoxic drugs can be used. Immunosuppressants may also be administered.
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
