Question
My brother was diagnosed with this kidney disease syndrome, a microscopic inflammation, at the beginning of this year. His scrotum has already swelled, and I am very worried. Therefore, I would like to consult on how to alleviate this microscopic inflammation of the kidney disease syndrome?
Answer
Microscopic lesion nephropathy is a type of kidney disease where most patients exhibit symptoms such as proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, edema, hypertension, or hematuria. It is recommended that patients get plenty of rest and avoid vigorous exercise. However, when the condition is stable, appropriate exercise is necessary. To enhance disease resistance and prevent infections, in addition to actively using corticosteroids and other anti-inflammatory medications, it is also important for patients to adopt a low-protein diet in their diet. The treatment method for microscopic inflammatory glomerulonephritis mainly involves medication, with non-pharmacological interventions including maintaining good living habits.
