Methods for rapid elimination of proteinuria include the following:
1. Dietary adjustment: Control protein intake. A high-quality, low-protein diet, such as lean meat and milk, is recommended to reduce the burden on the kidneys. Avoid excessive intake of high-protein foods such as eggs and soybeans.
2. Medication: If caused by kidney disease, such as nephrotic syndrome, immunosuppressants, corticosteroids, cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and other medications may be used under a doctor's guidance. For proteinuria caused by acute nephritis or glomerulonephritis, the main treatments include anti-infective therapy, immunosuppressants, and hormone therapy. Hormone therapy can help reduce inflammation and promote the rapid resolution of proteinuria.
3. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Herbal therapies, such as herbal permeation therapy, can directly target the kidneys and have certain effectiveness in treating proteinuria, although the therapeutic effect may take longer and require consistent treatment.
4. Lifestyle modifications: In addition to these treatment methods, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, following a low-salt diet, and engaging in moderate exercise can also help manage proteinuria.
