Patient's question:
Because I suddenly had a fever before, I developed those butterfly-shaped rashes, which I found very frightening, so I immediately went to the hospital. Then I was diagnosed with lupus nephritis. Recently, I have also been taking medication in addition to intravenous drips, and I feel like I'm gradually getting better. However, I know almost nothing about post-treatment care. What are the nursing methods for lupus nephritis?Doctor's answer:
Lupus nephritis, if symptoms significantly improve during the treatment process, there is no need to worry. Of course, proper care and treatment are still necessary. First and foremost, it is important to pay attention to diet and avoid spicy foods, while consuming more dairy products, eggs, lean meat, and a variety of vegetables and fruits. Maintain emotional stability, avoid excessive irritability and anxiety, ensure sufficient deep sleep, drink plenty of water and urinate frequently, and avoid overly strenuous exercise. Sexual activity is temporarily not recommended.
