Travel can increase knowledge, cultivate sentiment, and enrich people’s lives. After work, it is undoubtedly a great joy of life to enjoy flowers and mountains with friends and relatives. But for those who suffer from kidney disease, can they still have the opportunity to enjoy the pleasure of travel? The answer to this question cannot be generalized, but should be analyzed according to the specific situation of each person. Generally speaking, for ordinary patients with chronic glomerulonephritis, if their condition is still stable, they can still go out to travel after consulting their primary care physicians and obtaining their consent, after adequate preparation, because appropriate outdoor activities not only help physical and mental health, but also help the treatment of the disease. However, kidney patients travel, must grasp the proportion, take good care of themselves, but also pay attention to the following matters: First, the choice of tourist destinations, should try to choose some short-haul routes, should be near rather than far. As the saying goes, “A thousand days at home is good, half a day out is difficult”. In case of discomfort during the trip, there are always many inconveniences outside, as soon as possible to go home is undoubtedly one of the best options, so kidney patients go out to travel, the road time should not exceed half a day each way. Secondly, pay attention to rest and do not overexert yourself. Travel is a physical activity, and too much exertion may lead to fluctuations in the condition, so during the journey. You should pay attention to the combination of work and rest to avoid excessive physical exertion. For example, when touring, you can choose to take the electric tour bus in the scenic spot, to avoid walking for a long time; when playing on the water, you can try to take the electric boat, do not choose hand-rowed boat. For activities such as mountain climbing, should be avoided as much as possible. You should also rest early at night to refresh and prepare for the next day’s excursion. In addition, it is important to prevent infections. Infections also tend to cause changes in kidney conditions. The most common infections during the trip are common cold and diarrhea. Therefore, kidney patients should bring enough clothes before going out, the wind is strong in the field, the temperature is variable, the journey must always add or subtract clothes to prevent colds. Also, although most travelers have the opportunity to taste the flavors and cuisines of various places, but still need to pay attention to food hygiene. The meals on the way should try to choose a fully licensed formal restaurant, the diet is light, strictly forbidden to overeat and eat unclean food. In addition, many kidney patients are still taking a small amount of medication, regular medication is very important for the control of the disease. So don’t forget to take your medication on time when you go out. Finally, for some kidney patients, there may be some special precautions. For example, for SLE nephropathy, it is very important to avoid direct sunlight; for hypertensive nephropathy, you should not eat too salty when eating out; for diabetic nephropathy, you should pay special attention to a low-sugar diet and insulin injection before meals. However, not all kidney patients are suitable for travel. For patients with uncontrolled massive proteinuria, severe edema or renal insufficiency, they should still accept the doctor’s advice and rest at home or even hospitalization is appropriate. So, is it possible for patients on maintenance dialysis for uremia to go out and travel? Many friends think that definitely not, but the answer is just the opposite. Patients on maintenance dialysis, whether hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, are just as able to travel if they are stable and well prepared. However, compared to general kidney patients who do not need dialysis treatment, dialysis patients have a little more trouble preparing for travel. For hemodialysis patients, since they need regular hemodialysis treatment 2-3 times a week, if they go out for a long time, they need to obtain prior consent from their primary care physician and ask him/her to help them contact the nephrologist at the hospital of their destination in order to receive temporary hemodialysis treatment there. Peritoneal dialysis patients, on the other hand, are supposed to operate peritoneal dialysis treatment at home, so there are fewer restrictions on travel compared to hemodialysis treatment, as long as they carry a certain amount of peritoneal dialysis solution with them, or, of course, they can purchase peritoneal dialysis solution at the local hospital after prior contact. Of course, when operating the treatment, it is still important to pay attention to cleanliness to prevent infection.
