Entering autumn, although the temperature will drop in the morning and evening compared to summer, the weather is drier and the human body is more prone to lack of water. Therefore, people should pay more attention to diet and living habits to avoid the loss of kidneys caused by poor physical conditions.

In Guangdong, many people are concerned about kidney health, so some misunderstandings have appeared among the people. Today, the editor asked Guangdong Second Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to tell you about kidney disease.

Is there something wrong with the kidney?

To build up the shape, eat more kidneys to nourish the kidney?

Answer: It is not

It is not realistic to want to complement the shape by form. The waist of animal organs contains a lot of cholesterol and purines.

Long-term eating is likely to induce hyperlipidemia and hyperuricemia;

In addition, the internal organs contain a certain amount of metal "cadmium", and large amounts of eating may lead to the weakening of male reproductive function.

Therefore, eating too much kidney not only does not invigorate the kidney, but also harms health.

Back pain must be a kidney problem?

Answer: Not necessarily

Many reasons can cause back pain, such as lumbar spine and sacrum lesions ( lumbar disc herniation, bone spur_span3_span3 nerve pain); Gynecological diseases (uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts) may cause back pain.

The kidneys do not actually have painful nerves. Most patients with kidney disease do not have symptoms of low back pain, usually only in the acute phase of inflammation, or because of kidney cysts, tumors, and hydrops.When the kidneys are enlarged, it will cause back pain, backache, and back bloating.

Excessive urine is a bad kidney?

Answer: No

The amount of urination is affected by many factors, such as hot weather, a lot of exercise and more sweating, then urination will be less, and drinking a lot of water will increase the frequency of urination.

Generally, the phenomenon of excessive urine will appear briefly when acute kidney injury occurs in renal function.

Oliguria is generally a sign of poor kidneys. If the urine is too low to meet the needs of the human body, a blood test will find abnormal renal function. In addition, such as diabetes , diabetes insipidus may also cause an increase in the frequency of urination.

Is edema caused by kidney disease?

Answer: Not necessarily

Stress, standing for a long time, hypothyroidism, heart failure, liver cirrhosis, malnutrition, or venous reflux disorder, inflammation, etc. may all cause edema.

Therefore, edema is not necessarily a kidney problem, it needs to be checked to be clear.

Kidney deficiency means kidney disease?

Kidney deficiency is the concept of Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine believes that the kidney is the foundation of birth. Therefore, early gray hair, osteoporosis, poor spirits, frequent urination or oliguria, etc. may be related to kidney deficiency.

Nephropathy is the concept of Western medicine. Nephropathy refers to diseases and injuries of the kidney organs in Western medicine, including nephritis, nephrotic syndrome , renal failure and other medical renal substantive diseases.It also includes surgical diseases such as kidney stones, tumors, and trauma.

To put it simply, kidney deficiency depends on symptoms, and kidney disease depends on inspection indicators.
