Measures to Prevent the Aggravation of Chronic Glomerulonephritis

The treatment for Chronic Glomerulonephritis needs a long period of time, during which the top task is to block the aggravation of the disease and make the situation stabilized first, and then to treat the disease. For Chronic Glomerulonephritis patients, how to prevent the worsening of the disease is the most important matter. Patients can take the following measures:
1. In the stage of attack, patients should have enough rest in bed, especially for those with obvious edema and serious illness conditions, because enough rests can promote the urination and reduce the dangerous complications like Heart Failure and encephalopathy so as to prevent the deterioration of the disease. In the recovery phase, patients should take more exercises and make muscles normal, because long-term lying posture will reduce patients’ physical strength and immunity. If necessary, patients can take part in some activities like shadow boxing to enhance constitution and improve defense function.
2.In daily life, patients should pay attention to the changes of climate and weather. Because coldness may cause renal arteriospasm and ischemia which can aggravate renal functions, so patients should keep warm. Moreover, patients should notice personal hygiene and keep skin clean so as to avoid the occurrence of pyoderma. At the same time, patients should prevent the infection of respiratory tract including isthmopyra.
3.Patients should also eliminate chronic infection lesions like tonsillitis. If acute infections occur or the repeated attack of Chronic Gglomerulnephritis is related to infections, patients should take antibiotics to control the disease.

In short, patients can prevent the aggravation of Chronic Glomerulonephritis from the following aspects: avoiding infections in daily life, enhancing autoimmunity, supplementing more nutrition and keeping happy. By that, the disease will be put under proper control, which can contribute to relevant treatments.
