Patient's question:
Recently, my body has been experiencing some issues, not only due to the pain in my waist and legs but also because the area around my waist always hurts. I don't know if there's a problem with my waist. I thought it would be best to endure it for a few days, but it didn't help. In the end, I had to see a doctor. The hospital conducted a thorough examination, and the doctor performed a CT scan, saying I have rheumatoid arthritis combined with nephrotic syndrome and need immediate treatment. I would like to ask how to treat rheumatoid arthritis combined with nephrotic syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Rheumatoid arthritis and nephrotic syndrome patients have elevated plasma albumin levels, along with increased levels of partially degraded immunoglobulins and cellular complement components, anticoagulant and fibrinolytic cytokines, metalloproteinase-9, and endocrine hormones. The plasma levels of rheumatoid arthritis and nephrotic syndrome patients also increase. It is important to pay attention to preventing cold exposure, especially during winter. The temporary living environment should have fresh air, which greatly helps the course of the disease. It is recommended to consume more green tea to clear lung heat, replenish qi, and nourish the spirit. Smoking and drinking beer are strictly prohibited.
