For children with nephrotic syndrome, after regular treatment with hormones, the symptoms such as proteinuria disappears soon, but what is depressing is that it’s easy to relapse, many parents wonder why?
There are mainly two reasons:
1. Hormones can treat symptoms but not renal damage
Without a doubt, hormones can remove symptoms of nephrotic syndrome, such as protein in urine and occult blood, in a short time. Through this kind of medication, the holes for leaking protein into urine is blocked, at the same time, some damage substance such as immune complexes is blocked in, too. It seems that the condition has turned better, but actually not, it’s just the time to hide the real problem. Under some acute conditions, hormones can be used to relieve symptoms, but they can’t be always used. It’s more important to stop the cause of renal damage and nursing kidneys.
2. Infection or cold can worsen children’s condition
The bodies of kids are not completely mature and easy to be attacked by disease, in addition, the immunity of kids with nephrotic syndrome is low and easy to get infection or cold. Infection or cold can make the burden or kidneys heavier, plus nephrotic syndrome is not throughly treated before, so it may relapse often.
