Patient's question:
I want to know what kind of treatment can help rescue patients with hypertensive nephropathy, what causes it, what kind of interference does hypertensive nephropathy cause, will it interfere with your survival, and is there a possibility of self-healing?Doctor's answer:
The kidneys themselves are used to filter toxins from the body, excreting excess water and sodium through urine, and preventing the leakage of proteins, blood cells, etc., from the blood vessels. Hypertension increases blood pressure in the vessels, causing proteins to leak into the urine. Once proteins leak, they can damage the kidneys' filtration system. If hypertension is not well-controlled for a long time, the structural damage it causes is difficult to reverse, gradually leading to kidney damage and even chronic kidney failure. Uremia is the final and most severe stage.
