When the kidneys are severely damaged due to disease, the kidneys become diseased and lose their ability to purify the blood, and waste and fluid build up in the body. The human body will produce various symptoms, namely uremia. Causes of uremia are chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, renal tuberculosis, renal arteriosclerosis, urinary tract stones, prostatic hypertrophy, bladder cancer, lupus erythematosus, diabetes, and so on.

The gastrointestinal symptoms of uremia are the earliest, with anorexia, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, ammonia smell in the mouth, often inflamed gums, oral mucosal ulceration, and bleeding. The nervous system may have insomnia, irritability, numbness and burning pain in the limbs, drowsiness or even convulsions, and coma in the late stage. The cardiovascular system can appear hypertension and precordial pain caused by pericarditis and heart failure, palpitations, shortness of breath, abdominal distention, edema, inability to lie down, etc. Anemia and mucosal bleeding may occur in the blood system. The respiratory system may have cough and chest pain caused by pneumonia and pleurisy. Uremia is a very dangerous disease that is often life-threatening if left untreated.

Home remedies

Active treatment

Although uremia is a fatal disease, it is not incurable. For cases without predisposing factors, when renal function is irreversible, dialysis treatment can be considered. Dialysis therapy includes oral, peritoneal, and hemodialysis (artificial kidney); oral dialysis therapy is only suitable for mild uremia patients. In recent years, due to the widespread application of dialysis therapy, many patients with advanced uremia can survive for 5 years and maintain a certain labor force. Therefore, dialysis therapy is one of the effective methods for the treatment of advanced uremia.

Well rested

Uremic patients should ensure adequate rest and good nutrition and not engage in activities beyond their ability.

Avoid kidney-damaging chemicals

Avoid supplies and environments that contain cadmium, chloroform, ethylene glycol, and perchloroethylene. They are commonly found in pesticides, car exhaust, paints, buildings, and household cleaners.

Limit foods high in pickaxe

Some chemical elements have been found in general household products to be associated with acute and chronic kidney disease. As long as you read the product instructions carefully and take some precautions, you can avoid these harmful substances.

Cadmium: This rare metal is used in the production of pesticides, rubber tires, as well as plastics, coatings, and other products. Due to its wide industrial uses, cadmium has been found widely in some foods and water. The following points should attract attention to limit the intake of foods high in cadmium, such as foods made from animal liver and kidney, flounder, mussels, scallops, oysters, and vegetables grown in sludge.

Make sure that paints, dyes, and soda used for spraying and crafting are free of cadmium.

Do not smoke

Smoking is not good for the kidneys.

Adopt a low-protein diet

Patients with uremia should be given a low-protein diet. Normal adults need 1-1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. Patients with uremia can only eat less than 0.5 g/kg to reduce the generation and retention of nitrogen metabolites in the body.

Choose custard foods

Due to the small amount of protein, you should try to use animal protein foods such as eggs and milk with higher nutritional value, and use less plant protein such as soy products.

Keep hydration 

Provide an appropriate amount of water according to the condition.

Health Medicated Diet

①Glutinous rice astragalus tea

Take 60 grams of glutinous rice, 15 grams of raw astragalus, and 30 grams of pale bamboo leaves, decoct in water and drink it, after about 10 doses, the effect can be seen. Usually eating more peeled radish, this disease is also of great benefit (refer to the diet for nephritis).

danger message

Seek medical attention as soon as possible if you have the following symptoms:

*Anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

* There is an ammonia smell in the mouth, the gums are often inflamed, and the oral mucosa is ulcerated and bleeding.

*Insomnia, irritability, numbness and burning pain in the limbs, drowsiness or even convulsions, coma.

* Symptoms such as hypertension and precordial pain caused by pericarditis and heart failure, palpitations, shortness of breath, epigastric pain, edema, and inability to lie down.

7 conditions that can cause uremia

First: AIDS

According to statistics, uremia caused by HIV infection is on the rise. This reason now accounts for 1% of uremia incentives.

Second: age

With increasing age, the structure and function of the kidneys undergo marked degenerative changes. Under normal circumstances, the human kidney has a strong compensatory function. When the kidney function loses 50%, it can maintain the normal life activities of the human body. For example, after a kidney is removed, a person can still survive healthily. With the increase of age, the reserve function of the human body is gradually weakened or even lost. In the case of no additional burden, the renal function can meet the needs of human life activities, but it does not have the ability to cope with sudden injuries and diseases.

Therefore, once the elderly encounter unexpected situations, it is easy to cause further damage to renal function and develop uremia. Such as Infections, colds, blood loss, dehydration, nephrotoxic drugs, other diseases, etc., can become the incentives for senile uremia. The elderly in my country accounts for 10% of the total population, and by 2025, the elderly over the age of 60 in my country will reach 19.3%. In the physical examination, it was found that 17.3% of the elderly suffered from different types of kidney diseases; among the inpatients, the elderly suffering from urinary system diseases accounted for 3.4% to 6.3%, which was the eighth cause of death for elderly inpatients.

Third: drug toxicity

Different degrees of toxic and side effects of drugs can cause uremia. At present, about 25% of renal failure patients in the country are related to the nephrotoxicity of drugs.

Fourth: Infection

Uremia is often triggered by a urinary tract infection or urinary tract infection. Men, women, and children can be affected, especially in married women of childbearing age. Therefore, patients with kidney disease should try their best to avoid infection in their daily life.

Fifth: other kidney diseases

Although there are many other factors that can cause uremia, kidney disease causes the most cases of uremia, because the ultimate outcome of all chronic kidney diseases will be uremia, among which chronic nephritis is the primary cause, among the diseases that cause uremia, chronic glomerulonephritis accounted for more than half.

Sixth: Diabetes

Diabetes can lead to uremia when blood sugar cannot be controlled for a long time. Many diabetic patients will develop uremia in the later stage

Seventh: high blood pressure

15% of hypertensive patients will be directly converted to uremia. Long-term high blood pressure will lead to impaired renal function and hypertensive uremia.

Who is the next target for uremia? As long as you suffer from any of the above conditions, then you are the next target for uremia.

How do avoid becoming the next target of uremia?

First of all, let the above seven diseases be rejected, and try to cure the above seven diseases. If it cannot be treated, then try to control the above diseases to a minimum, so as to prevent these diseases from developing into uremia.
