The morning sun is slightly dewed, and in the park, 63-year-old Uncle Lin is engaged in morning exercise as always. He was dressed in sportswear, his gray hair shone in the sun, and he was in good spirits. Uncle Lin retired a year ago, and in order to stay healthy, he began a daily morning exercise habit. Fate played a merciless tease on him.
On that day, Uncle Lin suddenly felt dizzy and weak, and was immediately rushed to the hospital for treatment. After some examination, the doctor sadly told the family that Uncle Lin was in the advanced stage of uremia. The news was like a blow from the blue, leaving everyone stunned. Uncle Lin's long-standing exercise habits have not been able to resist the invasion of the disease?
After careful questioning and understanding by the doctor, it turned out that Uncle Lin made three fatal mistakes during the exercise, which unknowingly aggravated his condition. The doctor lamented: "Exercise is a good thing, but if you don't do it properly, it will backfire." ”
What omissions did Uncle Lin make?
Excessive exercise without moderation
After retirement, Uncle Lin has plenty of time, and every morning is faint, he goes to the park to sweat. He has exercised so violently and for so long that he has far exceeded the limits of his body. Excessive exercise caused his body to be in a state of fatigue for a long time, and his immunity was weakened, giving the disease a chance to take advantage of.
Ignore your body's signals and stick to it blindly
During the exercise, Uncle Lin often felt unwell, but he always gritted his teeth and insisted, believing that this was the only way to exercise. The physical discomfort was his "call for rescue", but he was repeatedly ignored by Uncle Lin.
Lack of professional guidance and wrong exercise methods
Uncle Lin's exercise methods are mostly explored for himself, lacking scientific guidance and planning. Some movements not only fail to achieve the effect of exercise, but cause damage to the body.
Uncle Lin's death is sad, but it is also a wake-up call for us. Exercise is important, but scientific methods and moderate intensity are even more crucial. May each of us learn from this, cherish life, and exercise scientifically.
Exercise and uremia: excessive exercise may exacerbate the progression of kidney disease
When we talk about the relationship between exercise and uremia, we first need to understand what uremia is. Uremia, in short, is the end of chronic kidney failure, in which the kidneys are depleted and toxins and waste products are difficult to remove. In this scenario, the body will exhibit a variety of symptoms, such as exhaustion, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, edema, and increased blood pressure.
Now, let's dive into the role that exercise plays in all of this. Exercising in moderation is essential for good health, not only to strengthen the heart and lungs, boost immunity, but also to promote mental peace. For people with uremia or kidney insufficiency, excessive exercise can have serious consequences.
The potential pitfalls of overexercising
Increased kidney load: Strenuous or prolonged exercise promotes muscle breakdown and a surge in the production of waste products such as creatinine. For those whose kidney function has been impaired, these extra waste products may increase the negative kidney and advance faster.
Strenuous exercise can lead to heavy sweating, which can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Both of these conditions can cause further damage to the kidneys.
Immune system stress: While moderate exercise can boost the immune system, excessive exercise can overstress the immune system, making the body more susceptible to infections. In people with uremia, the infection may worsen the condition.
How to exercise scientifically?
For people with uremia or renal insufficiency, scientific exercise is essential. Here are some suggestions:
Consult a medical professional: Before starting any exercise program, it is important to consult with a medical professional about your physical condition and exercise limits.
Choose low-intensity exercises: such as walking, tai chi, yoga, etc., and avoid strenuous exercise.
Exercise in moderation: Don't overdo it, adjust the timing and intensity of your workouts according to your situation.
Maintain water balance: Make sure you drink enough before and after your workout to avoid dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.
Pay attention to your body's signals: If you experience discomfort during a workout, stop immediately and seek medical help.
Excessive and inappropriate exercise can be detrimental to the body, especially for people with pre-existing medical conditions. Scientific exercise and moderate intensity are the keys to maintaining good health. This is especially important for people with uremia or renal insufficiency.
Regular health check-ups and timely medical consultation are essential for all people, regardless of underlying medical conditions. Health is our most precious asset, and only by taking care of it scientifically and rationally can we enjoy a better life.
