What should be done when chronic nephritis progresses to the uremic stage?

Patient's question:

My uncle has had chronic nephritis for many years and has been receiving treatment. However, now that chronic nephritis has progressed to the stage of uremia, what should be done?

Doctor's answer:

Uncle has chronic nephritis and has now entered the stage of uremia. He should go to the hospital's nephrology department for follow-up treatment and consider undergoing dialysis. Daily care should be paid attention to, avoiding excessive physical activity, spicy and irritating foods, as well as hard-to-digest foods. It is recommended to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, avoid staying up late, and conduct regular checks on renal function and urine tests. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against colds, eat light and soft foods, keep the room well-ventilated, and drink plenty of hot water to ensure the condition does not worsen.
