Patient's question:
Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've been experiencing some swelling in my body. I feel weak all over. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. I'm asking, how can diabetic nephropathy be cured?Doctor's answer:
Diabetic nephropathy is mainly caused by poor control of diabetes and high blood sugar. It is necessary to control blood sugar well every year. Pay attention to diet, avoid eating greasy foods and sweets, and try not to eat porridge-like foods. Green vegetables can be eaten in abundance, and high-quality proteins such as eggs, lean meat, milk, fish, and shrimp can be consumed appropriately. Secondly, it is important to pay attention to exercise. If blood sugar control is still not effective, medication treatment is needed. It is recommended to seek treatment from an endocrinology specialist.
