Why Does Cold Lead The Childhood Nephrotic Syndrome(NS) To Relapse?
Many parents are confused that Nephrotic Syndrome reoccurs on their babies, who have experienced but cured it, especially, when the children get cold, it is more likely to relapse. Why?
How to find Nephrotic Syndrome and treat it with western medicine? Most of patients find something unusual on their children, such as, protein in urine or/and swell on the face, arms and legs, so they take them to check and finally find their children are suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome. Doctors often prescribe drugs like prednisone and diuretic. Prednisone can prevent protein from leaking out of children body and diuretic help discharge extra liquid, which causes swell. What parents should notice during the use of prednisone is that prednisone is belongs to steroid and does have side effects that the doctor will explain. Following the doctor’s directions is exactly essential to protect the child’s health. The other drug, diuretic, reduces the swelling by helping the child urinate more frequently. After the use of the two drugs, there is no protein in urine and swell is also disappears. Thus, most parents think the disease—Nephrotic Syndrome, strictly speaking, which can not be called a disease, has been cured and can not reoccur because we have antibody of this disease. However, have you think why the symptoms like protein and swell appear? To explain this question clearly, let’s talk about one of the most important organs in our body-kidney.
Reasons of appearances of protein in urine and swell and why cold lead Nephrotic Syndrome in children relapse? The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs located in the lower back and the size of each is about a fist. They clean the blood by filtering out excess water and salt and waste products from food. Healthy kidneys keep protein in the blood, which helps the blood soak up water from tissues. But kidneys with damaged filters may leak protein into the urine. As a result, not enough protein is left in the blood to soak up the water. The water then moves from the blood into body tissues and causes swelling. It is obvious that appearance of protein in urine and swell on some parts of children body is caused by the damaged kidney. But, western medicines only treat the symptoms not the damaged kidney. So, when have another infection, like cold, the virus attracts the kidney that has not been repaired and the kidney is easy to be defeated, so the patients experience a relapse.
