Shortness of Breath in Nephrotic Syndrome
Nephrotic Syndrome is one group of clinical manifestations. If uncontrolled effectively, it can cause some severe complications like shortness of breath. Why do Nephrotic Syndrome patients have shortness of breath? How to manage this problem for these patients?
Shortness of breath in Nephrotic Syndrome
Swelling is one typical symptom of Nephrotic Syndrome, because impaired kidneys are unable to filter out extra fluid and sodium. Additionally, Nephrotic Syndrome patients always have heavy protein leakage that can also make fluid leak from blood vessels into functioning tissues such as legs, feet, ankles, face, and so on.
In severe cases, excessive fluid will accumulate in lung, resulting in pleural effusion or pulmonary edema. Shortness of breath is just one common sign of pleural effusion.
How to manage shortness of breath for Nephrotic Syndrome patients?
Since fluid retention and protein leakage are the direct causes of shortness of breath, the treatment should begin from managing fluid retention and protein leakage. To manage it quickly, patients should reduce the pulmonary vein pressure and maintain enough the exchange of blood and oxygen. Then, patients should take some systemic therapies to repair their kidney filtering structure and improve kidney condition.
Compared with steroids and immunosuppressants, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is one better treatment option. On one hand, it can combine, split and dissolve immune complexes, so as to remove pathogenic factors. On the other hand, this therapy is able to expand blood vessels, increase the blood flow into kidneys, boost the self-curative ability of impaired kidney cells and regulate immune system. With these therapeutic effects, this therapy can not only treat Nephrotic Syndrome from the root but also prevent its relapse.
