Can nephrotic syndrome be cured?

Nephrotic syndrome is a relatively common disease that seriously affects the patient's physical health and brings a lot of inconvenience to the patient's life. However, many kidney patients worry that nephrotic syndrome cannot be cured. Is this true? Let us take a look at the treatment methods introduced in the article. I believe it can help you solve your worries and let you better understand nephrotic syndrome.

If there are patients with nephrotic syndrome around us, we should advise them to go to the hospital for treatment and take the medicine according to the prescription given by the doctor. The earlier the treatment is received, the more obvious the treatment effect will be, so everyone should pay attention to this disease.

As a nephrologist, I am often asked a question by many patients with nephrotic syndrome: "Can nephrotic syndrome be cured?" Now I have sorted out this question to help everyone solve this confusing problem.

It should be said that this question is both easy to answer and very difficult to answer. The key is whether the treatment method chosen is correct. In clinical practice, the current treatment for nephrotic syndrome still mostly adopts Western medicine methods. Most of the drugs used to control urine protein and urine occult blood, such as hormones, cyclophosphamide, tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosides, cyclosporine A, and cellcept, plug the holes in the damaged glomerular basement membrane, thus controlling the leakage of protein, so the protein index is also controlled. The protein turned negative. Will this cure the disease?

Next, let's analyze how proteins come about. Kidney disease is caused by long-term internal environmental disturbances and imbalances, which result in the production of a large amount of immune complexes and destructive substances inside the glomeruli of the kidneys, destroying the glomerular basement membrane and creating holes. If you want to treat the kidneys, you must first remove these destructive substances. If we start by repairing the holes in the basement membrane, destructive substances and immune complexes will inevitably remain inside the glomerulus. This method is obviously only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

Although the disease appears to be under control on the surface, with urine protein and occult blood temporarily reduced or disappeared, most patients believe that their condition has improved. No more treatment, just continue your life as usual. After a period of time, the disease will relapse when encountering triggering factors such as colds, infections, etc. At this time, the destructive substances left inside the glomerulus never stop damaging the kidneys, so the disease worsens with each relapse. When it progresses to the stage of renal failure and uremia, the best time for treatment is lost.

Through the above analysis, you should be able to see the consequences of conventional Western medicine treatment of kidney disease. This is also the reason why so many kidney disease patients are getting worse the more they are treated. Therefore, when treating kidney disease, you must choose the right method, follow the laws of development of things, and first dredge and then block. Funeng believes that kidney disease treatment goes through three stages. The first stage is the pathological treatment stage. At this time, the permeability of the basement membrane is enhanced by drugs instead of repairing the holes, which will be beneficial to the excretion of immune complexes. At this time, some proteins and cells will also be excreted together, so urine protein and occult blood may increase. The destructive substances will be excreted in the urine, and with the naked eye you can see that the urine is turbid, with flocs and sediment. The second stage is the stage of pathological repair and functional improvement. Through the continuous excretion of destructive substances, glomerular sclerosis and blood perfusion are significantly improved. ECT can be used to detect an increase in glomerular filtration rate. The third stage is the clinical improvement stage. At this time, the destructive substances have basically been excreted and the glomerular basement membrane is slowly repaired, thus blocking the urine protein and red blood cells inside, so the urine turns completely negative. Generally, patients who meet the treatment conditions will gradually recover after going through these three stages. If nephrotic syndrome is treated with this method, I believe there is still hope of cure.

I believe that after reading this article, you should know the consequences of nephrotic syndrome for patients. If we lack knowledge about this disease in our lives, it will be difficult for you to treat it better, so we hope that everyone will have time to learn more about the relevant treatments of nephrotic syndrome and lay the foundation for us to discover nephrotic syndrome in our lives.
