Do you think that gout is just a hereditary disease that causes pain and swelling in the joints? Do you think that young people don’t get gout at all? You are wrong! If young people have a long-term bad diet can also lead to gout, the more terrible is that gout can lead to kidney failure, and ultimately is uremia. First, understand the cause of gout is abnormal purine metabolism, resulting in increased uric acid synthesis of metabolic diseases. Gout is a metabolic disease caused by abnormalities in purine metabolism, resulting in an increase in uric acid synthesis. It can be caused by heredity, and even if there is no heredity in the family, long-term intake of high-purine foods, such as beer, seafood, animal offal, and fondue, can be a gout patient. A decrease in uric acid clearance at the beginning causes a rise in uric acid levels, at which time there are no other symptoms. When the plasma becomes saturated with uric acid, this causes monosodium urate crystals to be deposited in the relatively avascular tissues surrounding the distal joints. The presence of such crystals can lead to acute inflammatory synovitis in single or multiple joints. Gout is more common in men, and the bunion is the most commonly affected area, with 50% to 70% of first attacks occurring there. 90% of patients with gout will have first metatarsophalangeal joint involvement at some time in their lives. Other areas of the foot that may be involved are the back of the foot, the heel, and the ankle. In addition to joint involvement, uric acid crystals can be deposited under the skin and are called gouty nodules. Clinical manifestations Acute gout attacks are characterized by severe pain, swelling, redness, stiffness, and fever in the affected joints, and they occur suddenly. The attack usually lasts for a few days to a week. Generally there is no trigger, but can be secondary to mild trauma or after eating purine-rich foods. Complications Gout, once known as the “rich man’s disease”, has been increasing in incidence in recent years, and has become a common and frequent disease in the southeast coastal areas of China. At present, there are about 15 million gout patients in China, and the potential population has reached 120 million, more than 85% for men, used to be common in men over 40 years old, but now the 20-30-year-old men are also very common. The onset of gout is mainly due to the improvement of living standards and changes in dietary structure, seafood, fish, animal offal, especially the heart, brain, liver, kidney and other high-purine food intake is too much, the body’s blood uric acid concentration for a long time ultra-high caused by. Fourth, hemodialysis Hemodialysis is one of the renal replacement therapy for patients with renal failure. It is through the body blood drainage to the outside of the body, through a dialyzer consisting of countless hollow fibers, blood and electrolyte solution containing similar concentration of the body (dialysate) inside and outside of a hollow fiber, through the diffusion/convection for the exchange of substances, to remove metabolic wastes in the body, to maintain the electrolyte and acid-base balance; and at the same time, to remove the body’s excessive water. If you do not adjust the kidneys to restore its filtration function, acid-toxic crystals for a long time squeeze the joints, and finally the joints can not move normally, appear deformed. Therefore, gout patients should not only change their dietary habits, but also restore the function of the kidneys to improve the filtration ability, so that the acid toxicity can be discharged from the body without recurrence. Kidneys are the “foundation of the innate”, which should not be ignored. Kidney has hidden essence, the main growth, development, reproduction, the main water metabolism and other functions, known as the “innate nature of this”. Kidney loss is one of the important factors that cause dysfunction of internal organs and diseases. How to nourish the kidney 1, protect their feet foot warm is a way to nourish the kidney. This is because the kidney meridian starts at the bottom of the foot, and the foot is very susceptible to cold attack. Therefore, the feet should pay special attention to keep warm, do not sleep with your feet facing the air conditioner or fan; do not walk barefoot in the wet place for a long time. In addition, there are many points on the bottom of the foot, such as the Yongquan point. “Kidneys out of the Yongquan, Yongquan is also the heart of the foot.” Every night before going to bed, you can rub the soles of the feet Yongquan point, massage Yongquan point can play the effect of kidney essence. 2, stool to be smooth stool is not smooth, the accumulation of stagnant stool, turbid gas attack, not only make people upset, chest tightness and shortness of breath, but also will hurt the kidneys, resulting in waist soreness and fatigue, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, to keep the bowels smooth, is also a way to support the kidney. When it is difficult to solve the stool, the back of the hands can be used to stick to the kidney area, rubbing, can stimulate the kidney qi, accelerate defecation; walking, using the back of the hands to rub the kidney area, can alleviate the symptoms of lumbar soreness. 3, drinking water to nourish the kidneys Water is the source of life. Insufficient water may cause the retention of toxins and aggravate the burden on the kidneys. Therefore, drinking water regularly is a very important way to nourish the kidneys. 4, do not hold back the urine stored in the bladder to a certain extent, will stimulate the nerves, produce urinary reflex. At this time, you must go to the toilet in a timely manner, and urinate cleanly. Otherwise, the accumulation of urine will become a watery and turbid gas, infringement of the kidneys. Therefore, when there is urine should be discharged in a timely manner, is also one of the best ways to nourish the kidneys. 5, swallowing the kidney oral saliva is divided into two parts: thin saliva, by the spleen, the main; thick saliva, by the kidneys, the main. You can do an experiment, the mouth as soon as there is saliva to spit it out, less than a day, you will feel the waist sore, body fatigue. This in turn proves that swallowing fluid can nourish kidney essence, play a role in preserving the kidneys. 6, diet to protect the kidneys There are many foods that can nourish the kidneys. In addition to black black sesame, black fungus, black rice, black beans and other black food can nourish the kidneys, walnuts, leeks, shrimp, goat’s waist and so on can also play a role in nourishing the kidneys. 7, sleep kidney Adequate sleep for the biochemistry of blood, kidney essence maintenance plays an important role. Clinical findings, many patients with renal failure have excessive late night, excessive fatigue, sleep deprivation experience. Therefore, do not stay up too late, develop a good routine, go to bed early and get up early, which is conducive to the maintenance of kidney essence. Foot bath can cure all diseases Feet are the base camp of yin and blood, three yin meridians are gathered here: the foot Shaoyin kidney meridian, foot Taiyin spleen meridian, foot syncope yin liver meridian. Kidney blood, liver blood, spleen blood. 1, why can foot soaking at night replenish blood blood deficiency, blood stagnation? Cold hands and feet, dull tongue, spots on the face, heart tightness, suffocating breathlessness. Soak your feet at night – put saffron in the hot water (pungent, warm, goes to the liver meridian and pericardium meridian, breaks the blood, moves the blood, harmonizes the blood and regulates the blood), activates the blood and removes the blood stagnation; unblocks the three yin meridians of the kidneys, the liver and the spleen. 2, foot bath tips spring foot bath, open sun fixed off; summer foot bath, remove dampness and heat; fall foot bath, clean the intestines and moisten the lungs; winter foot bath, Dantian warm. Put ginger, Chenpi and mint in the water → spleen and stomach deficiency → warm the spleen and stomach, get rid of dampness. Put pepper in the water to remove odor and dampness, promote qi and water circulation, and support yang qi. Put white peony, motherwort and angelica in the water→dysmenorrhea→dysmenorrhea is usually caused by cold or stagnation of qi and blood stasis, white peony removes yin qi, removes abdominal pain, and smoothes the blood; motherwort removes stasis and generates new blood, and promotes blood circulation to regulate menstruation; angelica replenishes and promotes blood circulation to regulate menstruation to alleviate pain and can also make the skin fair and red and improve the problem of cold hands and feet. Put dry ginger in the water → rheumatism and bone pain, fear of cold and chills → dry ginger warms the middle and disperses the cold, returns yang and passes the veins. Put Astragalus 10g, Turbinate 10g, Elongate 10g, Pepper 6g in the water → Diabetes (caused by Yin deficiency) → Pepper dispels dampness; Astragalus replenishes qi and consolidates the surface; Turbinate helps the medicine penetrate deep into the muscle through the skin and exerts its medicinal power.
