Can kidney hydronephrosis lead to low blood pressure?
Whether hydronephrosis can cause hypotension depends on specific conditions. Mild hydronephrosis generally does not cause hypotension; if the condition is severe, it may lead to hypotension in patients. Hydronephrosis can be caused by congenital urinary obstruction, acquired urinary obstruction, and other reasons. If the patient's condition is relatively mild, and there are no obvious symptoms of discomfort, only the phenomenon of hydronephrosis is found during physical examination, this situation generally does not cause hypotension. However, if the patient's condition is severe, with symptoms such as pain in the waist and abdomen, difficulty urinating, and accompanied by hematuria and proteinuria, it will damage kidney function, affecting blood circulation in the body, thus leading to hypotension. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention promptly, improve relevant examinations under the guidance of a doctor, and undergo treatment after clarifying the cause. For patients with hydronephrosis, anti-infective treatment can be performed with medications such as Cefixime Capsules and Amoxicillin Capsules under the guidance of a doctor. When necessary, surgical treatment can also be performed. In daily life, pay attention to healthy eating habits, try to eat light foods, avoid spicy foods such as chili peppers, and avoid cold foods, as they may affect the recovery of the disease.
