It is difficult to completely cure dogs with stones. Even if the stone is taken out now, there is still a great possibility of recurrence. For some extremely large stones, it may not be possible to take them out at one time. Here are the precautions and routine treatment for dogs in kidney calculi.
Diet care should pay attention to the following points:
1. Increase calcium intake: enough calcium will combine with oxalic acid and be excreted through feces, thus reducing the absorption of calcium in the intestine and of course reducing the chance of stones. Therefore, drinking more milk will not increase stones, but will help reduce the chances of stones.
2. Reduce the intake of oxalic acid: spinach, tea and other foods containing more oxalic acid should be reduced.
3. Reduce sodium intake: Eat a light diet and try to eat less canned food and processed food. Eat more foods containing potassium, such as bananas.
4. Reduce the intake of meat: reducing the intake of animal protein can reduce the chance of stone formation.
5. Drink more water and exercise: drink at least 3000C C. C's water More exercise can reduce the loss of bone calcium, and then reduce the occurrence of stones.
The intake of protein should be limited, and the daily total intake of protein is between 48 and 80g (0.8 ~1.0g/kg/day). Generally, leafy vegetables contain about 10g protein per catty, lean meat contains about 10g protein per 50g, and cereals contain 35-60g protein per catty. We should increase the consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits contain vitamin B 1 and vitamin C. Their final metabolites in the body are alkaline, and uric acid is easily dissolved in alkaline urine, which is beneficial to treatment.
Routine treatment: eat a cold diet (raw fruit, juice, lettuce) once every 1-2 days, and eat a cold diet at least once a week. Eat or avoid less meat, animal offal, broth, gravy, sardines, crabs, spinach, strong tea and coffee, and use less strong spices and condiments.
