Patient's question:
My husband has been feeling that his kidneys aren't doing well recently. When he went to the hospital for a check-up, it turned out to be uremia. How does uremia occur?Doctor's answer:
The most common cause of uremia in China is long-term chronic glomerulonephritis, which gradually progresses to chronic kidney insufficiency and then further to uremia. This is the most common cause of uremia. Additionally, other diseases such as severe polycystic kidney disease can also gradually develop into uremia. Once it reaches the stage of uremia, it is generally difficult to reverse the condition, and most patients require dialysis for treatment.
