What should I pay attention to when I have kidney disease in children?

What precautions should be taken for children with kidney disease? Children are the future of the country. Whether children can grow up healthily is related to the country's future development. However, children's bodies are very fragile and they are easily affected by various diseases. Childhood nephrotic syndrome is a disease that is very harmful to children. So what precautions should be taken for children with kidney disease? Let's find out below.

Parents should note that children with kidney disease generally need to take medication during the stable period of their condition. Since children generally need to take diuretic hormone drugs, their urine output increases, which requires special attention. Teachers and health care physicians should also check the children's medication status every day. Avoiding infection is also key. Once there is a source of infection from other diseases in the kindergarten, children with kidney disease should be isolated in time, or sent home to recuperate, to prevent infection with other infectious diseases.

Parents also need to pay attention to not letting their children get too tired. Children have poor self-control ability. When they return home from the hospital, they will feel very fresh and easily get too tired from playing and lack of sleep. Parents should pay special attention to arranging their children's work and rest time and try to get enough rest. Children should be given clothes in time according to weather changes and should be kept warm. Children should be given more care during nap time to ensure that they get enough sleep.

In terms of diet, you should also pay attention to a low-salt diet when you have edema to avoid aggravating the edema. Generally, the daily salt intake should not exceed 2g. Pickled foods are prohibited, and MSG and baking soda should be used less. When the edema subsides and plasma protein is close to normal, you can resume a normal diet.

This is the end of the introduction to the relevant knowledge about what should be paid attention to during the treatment of nephrotic syndrome in children. I hope it can attract the attention of parents.
