How can pyelonephritis be serious

summary

I only know that I may have kidney problems, but I don't know what specific disease I have. Later, I was a little too tired to eat, so I went to the hospital for a detailed examination and found that I had pyelonephritis, which was quite serious. Now let's talk about how serious pyelonephritis will be.

How can pyelonephritis be serious

First: chronic pyelonephritis will lead to continuous loss of renal function and irreversible uremia, but early standardized treatment can be reversed. Now the reason why repeated, then that the past treatment is not thorough, need timely treatment.

Second: it is caused by bacterial infection and needs active anti infection treatment. If the treatment is not thorough or timely, the disease may turn into chronic, and the latter may further develop to kidney disease or renal insufficiency (serious cases may cause uremia).

Third: pyelonephritis is generally caused by the spread of inflammation from the lower urinary tract, most of which are caused by bacterial infection. As long as active anti-bacterial anti-inflammatory treatment, should be able to heal. It's not a serious disease. As long as it is treated in time, it can be cured without sequelae.

matters needing attention

Patients with pyelonephritis should avoid repeated episodes of urinary tract infection, pay attention to personal hygiene, clean perineum every day, do not wear tight pants, timely diagnose and treat local inflammation, avoid overwork, and actively cooperate with doctors during the illness.
