What causes uremia

Uremia is a kidney disease and also a very scary disease. The reason why people suffer from uremia is that when they suffer from other kidney diseases, they do not pay attention to it, do not receive timely treatment, and the condition is not effectively controlled, which leads to uremia after the condition becomes serious. When examination reveals that you have uremia, it means that the condition is already quite serious. If you receive treatment at this time, the condition will be difficult to control. So in order to avoid such situations, when you suffer from the disease, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time. Now let’s talk about the causes of uremia.

One of the reasons

It is mainly hypertension. Studies show that 15% of hypertensive patients will directly develop uremia. According to statistics in 1998 in my country, patients with hypertension accounted for 10% of the total population, that is, one in every 10 people is a hypertensive patient, and one to fifteen of them will become patients with uremia. Kidney disease is the main cause of uremia, and the final outcome of all chronic kidney diseases will be this disease. Chronic nephritis accounts for a large proportion of these. Among the diseases caused by chronic nephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis accounts for 55.7%.

Reason 2

Diabetes is also the main cause of uremia. 30% of diabetic patients directly develop uremia diabetes. Recent statistics show that among the Chinese population, there are 43.2 million people with diabetes and 50.64 million people with impaired glucose tolerance, with the total number of the two being 93.84 million. That is to say, because of diabetes alone, there are about 13 million patients with uremia and more than 15 million high-risk people in my country.

Reason 3

Patients with urinary tract infection may also suffer from uremia. According to statistics, the incidence of urinary incontinence in my country is 0.23% for men and 2.37% for women. The disease can occur in both men and women, young and old, and is especially common in married women of childbearing age. In our country, chronic pyelonephritis is the second leading cause of the disease, accounting for 21.2%. Different degrees of toxic side effects of drugs cause uremia. Studies have shown that approximately 25% of renal failure patients are associated with drug nephrotoxicity. People who frequently use folk remedies, herbal remedies, and painkillers are prone to kidney function problems.

Reason 4

It is also closely related to the natural development of the body. As we age, the structure and function of our kidneys will undergo significant degenerative changes. The body's reserve function will gradually weaken or even be lost. In the absence of additional burden, kidney function can meet the needs of human life activities, but it does not have the ability to cope with sudden injuries and diseases. Therefore, once the elderly encounter unexpected situations, it is easy to cause further damage to kidney function and develop this disease.
