Uremia refers to the acute and chronic advanced stages of renal failure, generally referring to the fourth and fifth stages of chronic kidney disease.
Once suffering from uremia, the patient's kidney function will be rapidly lost, resulting in the accumulation of a large number of toxic substances in the body, and will cause water and electrolyte disorders, which has a greater impact on health and life.
Therefore, in daily life, we must pay attention to the prevention of uremia. In particular, we must pay attention to developing good living habits to prevent kidney damage.
So, what good habits can be developed to prevent the emergence of uremia?
First, do not take any drugs indiscriminately
In daily life, if you suffer from some diseases, you can use medicine under the guidance of a doctor. It is absolutely not possible to take any drugs indiscriminately or to take some health care drugs.
For example, a variety of antipyretic and analgesic drugs, antibiotic drugs, as well as various types of traditional Chinese medicine, health care drugs and so on.
Blood flow to the kidneys is so large that almost all drugs entering the body need to be metabolized inside the kidneys.
If you consume a large amount of drugs for a long time, it will lead to an increase in the burden on the kidneys, and even cause damage to the kidneys. It is easy to cause kidney dysfunction, which increases the risk of developing uremia.
2. Actively treat chronic kidney disease
Uremia is the end-stage manifestation of various kidney diseases, so in daily life, once there is chronic kidney disease, such as chronic pyelonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis, or glomerular arteriosclerosis, etc., it must be treated as soon as possible.
If these diseases are not treated early, they can lead to a gradual decline in kidney function until they fail, which can induce the emergence of uremia. However, if you have diabetes or hypertension, once you induce kidney complications, you should also receive regular treatment quickly.
Third, do a good job of dietary conditioning
Regardless of the type of population, you must not eat too much meat food. Meat foods contain a large amount of high protein, once a large amount of long-term entry into the body, will increase the burden on the kidneys.
And these foods will metabolize a large number of metabolites in the body. These metabolites need to be excreted through the kidneys and can easily lead to impaired renal function.
In addition, three meals a day must be based on light food, do not use too much salt, and do not eat some pickled foods.
Once the intake of table salt in the body is excessive, it will increase the burden on the kidneys, and will also make the glomeruli in a state of high filtration, high perfusion and high pressure, thus damaging the health of the kidneys.
Fourth, insist on exercising
Long-term sedentary is one of the triggers for various kidney diseases. When sitting for a long time, the blood circulation in the abdominal cavity and lower body of the human body will be obstructed, and it is difficult for qi and blood to function normally, which will affect the normal blood supply of the kidneys.
Therefore, in daily life, we must insist on aerobic exercise every day, such as jogging, brisk walking, etc. It can improve blood circulation in the kidneys and promote the excretion of metabolites in the body, reducing the burden on the kidneys.
Fifth, reasonable hydration and timely urination
It is necessary to supplement water reasonably every day, which can enhance metabolic function, greatly reduce the burden on the kidneys, and can effectively prevent the emergence of a series of urinary system inflammation such as nephritis.
Moreover, after drinking water, once the urinary intention occurs, it must be urinated in time, and the behavior of holding urine cannot occur. Otherwise, some harmful substances in the urine will affect the health of the bladder and kidneys.
The probability of inducing nephritis, kidney stones, and even hydronephrosis will increase relatively, resulting in kidney damage, which will increase the risk of uremia.
All in all, if you want to prevent uremia, you must pay attention to the adjustment of all aspects of life. In addition to the above 5 points, there can be no alcoholism and smoking behavior, and do not stay up late, let alone overwork.
If recurrent edema, abnormal urination, and nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms occur in daily life, you must quickly go to the hospital.
If it is caused by kidney disease, it is necessary to receive scientific and standardized treatment in time to prevent the emergence of uremia to the greatest extent.
