At this time, the patient's kidney can not function normally, which leads to the disorder of acid-base balance of water and electrolyte, the disorder of renal endocrine function, and a large number of metabolic end products and toxic substances remain in the body, thus causing a series of symptoms and signs and becoming uremia.
Uremia actually refers to the toxicity that the human body can't produce urine through the kidney, and excrete the waste and excess water produced by metabolism in the body. Modern medicine believes that uremia is a series of complex syndromes caused by disorder of internal biochemical process after renal function loss, rather than an independent disease, referred to as renal failure syndrome or renal failure.
The causes of uremia are: chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, renal tuberculosis, renal arteriosclerosis, urinary calculi, prostatic hypertrophy, bladder cancer, lupus erythematosus and diabetes.
If these nephropathy are not treated in time and regularly, plus hypertension, diabetes, proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, western medicine, anemia, hyperlipidemia, aging, malnutrition, etc., it will aggravate and accelerate the process of uremia.
There are two places that stink.
-Bad breath
Bad breath is a common problem. Dyspepsia or eating greasy food can cause bad breath. This kind of situation can be alleviated by brushing your teeth.
If there is a serious odor in the mouth for a period of time, this odor is similar to ammonia and urine, so we must pay attention to it, which is probably caused by uremia.
When suffering from uremia, the patient's kidney is lost, which makes the body's metabolism decline, leading to the accumulation of garbage toxins in the body, which is excreted through the respiratory tract and aggravates the oral odor. As time goes on, the taste in the mouth will become more and more serious.
-Smelly urine
Under normal circumstances, human urine will have a certain urine smell, but there will be no obvious irritating smell. If you find that urine has obvious irritating smell, you should be alert that it is probably caused by the increase of urea content in urine, which is one of the typical symptoms of uremia.
When the excretion function and reabsorption function of the kidney are damaged to a great extent, the blood urea nitrogen level in the body will increase, which will lead to the increase of urea nitrogen concentration in the urine. At this time, the discharged urine will have a strong irritating ammonia smell.
Stick to 3. No.
-Don't stay up late
For patients with chronic kidney disease, lack of sleep may accelerate the deterioration of the disease and promote renal failure. It is recommended to sleep for 7-8 hours every night, which is more conducive to health.
Staying up late will destroy the human body's own rhythm and make it "work overtime". After a long time, you can be "overworked and sick", so the doctor suggested that if you want to protect your kidneys, you should try to avoid staying up late.
-Don't hold your urine.
Holding urine has an effect on the kidney. The main cause of pyelonephritis is that urine in the bladder flows back to the ureter and kidney.
In the case of holding urine, urine will be concentrated in the bladder, increasing the burden on the bladder. Moreover, if garbage waste is not excreted with urine at the first time, it may make renal tubules reabsorb garbage toxins in urine, and it will also cause harm to human kidneys.
-Don't eat foods high in fat and salt.
High-salt, high-sugar and high-fat diet will increase the metabolic burden of the kidney, which will easily lead to out-of-control blood pressure and blood lipid, thus causing great harm to the kidney and accelerating the development of renal failure.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop good eating habits, adopt a low-sugar diet and supplement the body with high-quality and low-protein food, which can reduce the filtration pressure of the kidney and maintain the stability of renal function.
How long uremia can live generally needs to be judged according to the specific situation of the patient.
If patients are actively treated during their illness and have no other complications, they can generally live for 20-30 years. Patients will have nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, dyspnea, anemia and other symptoms after illness, which can be treated by surgery. The common operation is kidney transplantation. After treatment, the patient's physical state can be restored to physiological state, which can help the patient prolong his life.
However, some patients suffer from uremia and delay at home for a long time, resulting in serious complications, such as fatal acidosis, severe heart failure, hyperkalemia, gastrointestinal bleeding, cerebral hemorrhage and other serious complications, and patients may survive for a very short time.
How long can uremia live? The life span of patients is influenced by many factors. It is difficult to use an accurate number to refer to it. Patients don't have to have too heavy psychological burden. They should maintain a relaxed and happy mood and actively cooperate with doctors for treatment. I believe that with the joint efforts of patients and doctors, life expectancy will be prolonged.
