Under normal circumstances, the content of protein in human urine is very low, only 30~ 130mg/24h, the protein in random urine is 0~80mg/L, and the qualitative test of urine protein is negative. When the protein in urine exceeds 150mg/24h (or exceeds 100mg/L), the qualitative test of protein is positive, which is proteinuria.
When you get your urine routine and find "urinary protein+",what you are most worried about is whether there is something wrong with your kidney?
In fact, in many cases, "urinary protein+"will appear. Sometimes, proteinuria is physiological. For example, after fever, high temperature, cold, strenuous exercise and high protein diet, we will have transient proteinuria. Female friends, when urine samples are contaminated by vaginal secretions, pseudoproteinuria will occur.
In addition, urinary tract infection, cystitis, urethritis, urinary calculi, tuberculosis and tumors can also cause proteinuria.
Of course, nephropathy is the most common disease with proteinuria, such as various types of glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive renal arteriosclerosis and so on.
Therefore, when proteinuria occurs, don't panic first, check further, make clear the source of urinary protein, and find out the cause, so as to treat it timely and symptomatically.
Dr. Zhang is online-welcome your attention! Proteinuria is caused by the leakage of macromolecular protein into urine due to the damage of glomerular filtration membrane. That is to say, there is an inflammatory lesion in the glomerulus. There is also transient proteinuria after strenuous exercise.
Glomerular inflammatory diseases are primary, such as glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and rapidly progressive nephritis. There are secondary diseases, such as hypertensive nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, lupus nephropathy and so on.
At present, western medicine treatment is to suppress immunity, which requires long-term medication.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that it is kidney yang deficiency and kidney qi is not solid. Chinese medicine treatment has advantages.
Proteinuria can be found in: (1) extrarenal causes, 1, orthostatic and lordosis proteinuria. 2, proteinuria after exercise. 3, blood stasis proteinuria, right heart failure, renal vein thrombosis. 4, fever. 5. Paraproteinuria. (2) Kidney disease, 1, acute and chronic glomerulonephritis. 2. Nephritis, interstitial nephritis, glomerulosclerosis, gouty kidney, renal tubular syndrome, polycystic kidney, nephrotic syndrome of various reasons.
Urine protein, also known as urine protein, refers to a common abnormal result of protein's clinical urine test that can be detected by routine urine examination. If the urine protein exceeds 150mg in 24h, the urine protein can be detected by routine urine examination. If the urine routine test is negative, but there is too much albumin in the urine by a specific and more sensitive method, it is called microalbuminuria. If the urine protein content is 3.5g/24h, it is called massive urine protein.
Urinary protein is common in all kinds of primary and secondary kidney diseases, and can also be seen in urinary system infections, tuberculosis, stones, tumors, etc. In addition, normal people can also cause proteinuria under the conditions of strenuous exercise, overwork, fever and excessive tension.
Therefore, we usually find that there are more bubbles when urinating, and proteinuria is found by routine urine. Don't be too nervous and worried first. We need to rule out the possibility of physiological proteinuria first. If it is determined to be pathological proteinuria, we need to analyze the causes of proteinuria, and then carry out individualized treatment according to the cause.
When it comes to proteinuria, many people should think about kidney function. Many people think that the appearance of proteinuria indicates that there is something wrong with their kidneys, so when they find proteinuria in urine, they will panic and wonder what is wrong with their kidneys. But in fact, the emergence of protein is not necessarily caused by kidney problems, but may also be caused by other reasons.
Usually, proteinuria is caused by glomerular diseases. If glomerular diseases lead to problems in the glomerular filtration rate barrier, it will lead to a decrease in the absorption of protein by renal tubules, which will lead to an increase in protein in urine and lead to proteinuria.
What is the cause of proteinuria?
1. Overwork can lead to
With the acceleration of the pace of life, the increase of life pressure makes many people feel more stressed because of some unpleasantness in their work and life, and also makes them work overtime every day. Overwork can easily lead to proteinuria, because after overwork, the body will feel tired, which will make mental stress in a state of tension, and functional proteinuria is also easy to occur.
2. Pathological proteinuria
When there is a problem with the kidney, proteinuria is likely to occur, mainly because the kidney needs to pass through the glomerulus when excreting urine. If there is a problem with the glomerulus, there will be a problem with the filtration rate, so that protein in the urine will leak out and protein in the urine will appear, which is mainly caused by diseases, such as nephropathy caused by diabetes and nephropathy caused by decreased renal function.
Step 3 stand for a long time
Some people will stand or walk for a long time because of work needs, and proteinuria is easy to appear after standing or walking for a long time. It is mainly caused by rhabdomyolysis after standing or walking for a long time, which will change the color of urine. This condition is often called postural proteinuria. In this case, timely treatment is needed before measures can be taken to improve it.
Speaking of proteinuria, many people should think of kidney function problems. Perhaps many people think that the occurrence of proteinuria indicates kidney problems, so when they find proteinuria in their urine, they will panic and wonder what is wrong with their kidneys. But in fact, the occurrence of protein is not necessarily caused by kidney problems, but may also be caused by some other reasons.
If it is proteinuria caused by renal disease, what is the reason? Doctors said that the common cause of protein's urine is glomerular disease. If glomerular disease occurs, it will cause problems in the glomerular filtration rate barrier, which will also lead to a decrease in the absorption of protein by renal tubules, and then increase the protein in urine, resulting in proteinuria.
What are the causes of proteinuria?
1, caused by overwork
With the acceleration of the pace of life, the increase of life pressure makes many people increase their pressure because of some unpleasantness in work and life, and also makes themselves overworked every day, and overwork will easily lead to proteinuria, because after overwork, the body will feel tired, which will make mental stress in a state of tension, and functional proteinuria will easily occur.
2. Pathological proteinuria
Proteinuria may occur when there is a problem with the kidney, mainly because the kidney needs to pass through the glomerulus when it excretes urine. If there is a problem with the glomerulus, there will be a problem with the filtration rate, and protein in the urine will leak out, leaving protein in the urine, that is, proteinuria. This situation is mostly caused by diseases, such as kidney diseases caused by diabetes and kidney diseases caused by decreased renal function.
3. Standing for a long time
Some people will make themselves stand or walk for a long time because of their work needs. Standing or walking for a long time is also prone to proteinuria, mainly because after standing or walking for a long time, the striated muscles will melt and the color of urine will change. This situation is generally called postural proteinuria. When this happens, you need to seek medical advice in time before you can take measures to improve it.
What should I do if proteinuria occurs?
1, find out the reason in time.
Be extra vigilant when you find yourself with proteinuria, find out the reason in time, and see if it is caused by physiology or pathology. Only by finding out the reason can you treat yourself symptomatically.
2. Let yourself have enough rest.
If you have proteinuria because of fatigue, you should have enough rest, so that you can effectively improve proteinuria.
Warm reminder: Although the occurrence of proteinuria may indicate the occurrence of kidney problems, not all cases of protein's urine indicate that the kidney must have problems. When this happens, you should seek medical advice in time, find out the reasons so that you can treat yourself correctly, and don't let yourself take measures blindly because of too much panic.
This problem is called deficiency of form in traditional Chinese medicine, or kidney qi is not solid.
How did it happen?
Most of them are drunk and overworked, that is, drinking, overeating, strain, sexual intercourse and other factors.
The specific pathology is that tangible substances in the blood, such as sugar and protein, play a role in scouring and rubbing the filtering function of the kidney when the blood circulation is accelerated suddenly. Let's take an example, that is, it is like a fast flowing water with sand scouring the river bed, and the soil is washed away, leaving only thick stones, which can no longer retain water. Water containing nutrients will be excreted.
How to treat it?
My major in acupuncture and moxibustion is diet therapy plus guiding qi and blood to flow into viscera, and nourishing liver and spleen.
