Poor blood pressure control and diabetes for too long will lead to vascular sclerosis, and the kidney is composed of millions of microvascular balls. If blood sugar and blood pressure are not well controlled, the kidney will deteriorate quickly. Unobstructed urination means that the excretory function of the kidney is abnormal. If the urethra is blocked and the urine is unobstructed, the chance of inflammation of the renal pelvis and renal parenchyma will be increased, the burden of the kidney will be increased, and even urine poisoning will occur.
Bacteria and other pathogenic microorganisms can directly rise retrogradely from the urinary tract and enter the kidney, causing kidney infection. In order to prevent bacteria from retrogradely infecting the urinary tract, keep the perineum and urethral orifice clean and hygienic.
The importance of the kidney is self-evident, and the human body is metabolizing all the time. The kidney expels the harmful substances produced by metabolism through urine to regulate the balance of water, electrolyte and acid-base of the body and maintain the normal progress of life activities. Here are 14 tips to teach you how to be a “kidney” person in winter.
1. Keep warm in winter
The survey found that the number of patients with worsening renal function in winter was far higher than that in other seasons, mainly because blood vessels contracted under low temperature, blood pressure soared, urine volume decreased, blood coagulation became stronger, and it was easy to cause kidney problems.
2. Don’t take medicine randomly
Many analgesics, cold medicines and Chinese herbal medicines on the market have kidney toxicity. Don’t eat them without a doctor’s prescription. You should also know the side effects of antibiotics and painkillers prescribed by doctors.
3. Don’t overeat
Eating too much protein and salt will increase the burden on the kidneys. In addition, sports drinks contain extra electrolytes and salts, and people with kidney disease should be careful with such drinks.
4. Treat colds
If a cold goes away and comes back, or after a cold, you have high blood pressure, edema, and bubbles when urinating, you’d better find a nephrologist for screening.
5. Be careful of repeated tonsillitis
When the larynx or tonsils are infected by Streptococcus, it must be cured, otherwise it is easy to cause kidney inflammation.
6. Drink proper amount of water without holding back urine
Urine remains in the bladder, just as bacteria are easy to breed after the sewer is blocked. Bacteria can infect the kidney through the ureter.
7. Control diabetes and hypertension
Poor blood pressure control and diabetes for too long will lead to vascular sclerosis, and the kidney is composed of millions of microvascular balls. If blood sugar and blood pressure are not well controlled, the kidney will deteriorate quickly.
8. Do not drink well water and river water with unknown composition
So as to avoid kidney damage caused by heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and chromium.
9. Urinary tract stones should be treated
It doesn’t mean that the stones are not painful, especially ureteral stones can easily cause hydronephrosis. In the long run, the kidneys will be completely damaged without knowing it.
