Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling unwell and went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said I have nephrotic syndrome and I'm very worried about my health. How should nephrotic syndrome be treated?Doctor's answer:
Nephrotic syndrome is a group of kidney diseases that result in varying degrees of kidney failure due to damage to the intrinsic cells of the kidneys. Traditional medicine can be somewhat effective in treating nephrotic syndrome, primarily by interfering with water absorption. However, the drugs cannot be effectively metabolized at the site of the lesion, and attention must be paid to a low-salt, low-fat diet, which can lead to slow or even no effect, making it difficult to achieve good therapeutic results in a short period of time. Diuretics and antihypertensive drugs can be used to relieve fluid retention and lower blood pressure. In fact, for patients, compared to hospital treatment, they are more inclined to how the hospital can solve their own problems and reduce pain. The key to treatment is to repair or enhance the regeneration of kidney inflammatory cells.
