Question
How is primary nephropathy treated? I’m always uncomfortable and miserable, unable to sleep.
Answer
- Patients with severe hypoproteinemia and severe edema should stay in bed, and after the edema disappears, they can gradually increase their activities.
- Use diuretics to reduce edema by consuming albumin.
- Glucocorticoid therapy; for patients who are not responsive to hormone therapy, consider cytotoxic drugs or immunosuppressants. Wish the patient a speedy recovery.
