Patient's question:
Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've been experiencing some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. I'm wondering if there are any good treatment options for lupus nephritis?Doctor's answer:
If you develop lupus nephritis, the treatment primarily involves using medications to protect the kidneys and treat rheumatism. Regular blood tests should be conducted, and if there are abnormalities in neutrophils and platelets, blood-thinning medications may need to be adjusted. If red spots and itching appear on the skin, you can soak in an artemisia decoction. Avoid getting angry and consuming foods. It is strictly forbidden to drink beer, and do not hold in your urine.
