summary

In life, men are very easy to suffer from kidney disease, such as kidney stones or acute pyelonephritis, which are caused by drinking. Let's share the relevant knowledge of acute pyelonephritis.

What is acute pyelonephritis

First of all, acute pyelonephritis refers to the acute infectious diseases of the renal pelvis mucosa and renal parenchyma, mainly caused by Escherichia coli infection, in addition to Proteus, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus faecalis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The most serious complication of acute pyelonephritis is toxic shock.

Then there are two ways of infection: ① ascending infection, bacteria from the ureter into the renal pelvis, and then into the renal parenchyma. 70% of acute pyelonephritis results from this pathway. ② Blood line infection, bacteria from the blood flow into the renal tubules, from the renal tubules into the renal pelvis, accounting for about 30%, mostly Staphylococcus infection. Urinary tract obstruction and urinary stasis are the most common causes of acute pyelonephritis. Simple pyelonephritis is rare. This kind of acute kidney disease should be treated in time, can not delay, otherwise it will cause renal cancer, it is very difficult to treat.

Finally, patients with acute pyelonephritis accompanied by fever, significant urinary tract irritation symptoms, or with hematuria should rest in bed, body temperature returned to normal, symptoms can be significantly reduced after getting up activities. Generally rest for 7-10 days, and return to work after symptoms disappear completely. Fever, systemic symptoms, according to the patient's general situation to liquid or semi liquid diet, no obvious symptoms changed to ordinary daily diet. High fever, gastrointestinal symptoms can be intravenous rehydration. The amount of drinking water should be sufficient every day, drinking more water, urinating more, flushing the urinary tract, promoting the discharge of bacteria and inflammatory secretions, and reducing the hyperosmolarity of renal medulla and nipple, which is not conducive to the growth and reproduction of bacteria.
