Does glomerulonephritis progress to chronic kidney disease?

Hello doctor, I just had a urine test and the doctor said I have glomerulonephritis. So what should I pay attention to in my daily life? Can my disease progress to chronic kidney disease and require dialysis?

Hello!

Glomerulonephritis is an inflammation of the glomeruli, which are an important component of the kidney's filtering system. Glomerulonephritis has two forms: acute glomerulonephritis (rapid progression) and chronic glomerulonephritis (slow progression, insidious progression). The cause of glomerulonephritis can be primary (idiopathic) or secondary (post-coccidial infection, lupus erythematosus, IgA nephropathy, etc.).

People with glomerulonephritis need a special diet and lifestyle to support treatment and prevent complications such as:

  • Rest: Avoid strenuous physical activities, staying up too late, and give your body plenty of time to recover.
  • Stay away from stimulants: Alcohol, beer, cigarettes, coffee...
  • Reasonable diet: Limit salt, control protein, drink enough water, avoid processed foods...
  • Exercise: Do gentle exercises such as yoga, tai chi, slow walking, or stretch your arms and legs in bed if you are weak.
  • Regular check-ups.

Glomerulonephritis can progress to end-stage renal failure if not treated promptly and effectively. Therefore, you need to closely monitor kidney function, control blood pressure, proteinuria, and find and treat the cause early.
