Each kidney is made up of around one million tiny filters-glomeruli, which
can keep valuable cells and protein in the blood. When glomeruli become damaged,
proteins begin leaking into the urine (proteinuria). Over time, large amount of
protein lost by "spilling" into the urine (more than 3.5g/24h), and Nephrotic
Syndrome can be caused.
What causes proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome?
Nephrotic Syndrome may appear as a result of many different diseases. The
common mechanism involves the immune system. Due to immune dysfunction or
abnormal immune function, the immune system of the body becomes directed against
the person's own kidney. There will be excessive immune reaction, and immune
complex can be produced and deposit on the kidneys.
The immune complexes are too stubborn to be cleared up, so the immune
reaction become more and more tense, leading to hypersensitivity reaction.
Hypersensitivity reaction will cause damage to the renal cells and tissues, and
the glomeruli become increasingly leaky. That's why patient with Nephrotic
Syndrome occur massive proteinuria.
Symptoms of proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome
Initially, proteinuria may exhibit only subtle or unnoticeable symptoms. Over
time, as the level of protein in urine increases, urine can begin to change in
appearance. One symptom of proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome is very foamy
urine.
Water retention is another symptom, which known as edema. It can cause
swelling in the hands, feet, and abdominal area. Besides, fatigue may also
appear as a symptom of proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome.
Natural Treatment of proteinuria in Nephrotic Syndrome
If we want to get rid of the protein in urine, we must find effective methods
to block hypersensitivity reaction, remove the deposits of immune complex,
repair the damaged glomeruli and kidney structure, and also regulate the immune
system.
Through many years research of Chinese medicine, nephrologists in our
hospital find a natural treatment-immunotherapy-which can guarantee us a better
treatment effect of Nephrotic Syndrome through performing the above
purposes.
Immunotherapy combines advanced Chinese and western medical techniques
including Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Immunotherapy, immunoadsorption,
blood purification, etc. Nephrotic Syndrome can be treated from the root, can
proteinuria will be cured naturally.
