Sore throat is one common disorder in our daily life, it may occurred among every person, and there are many reasons can lead to this problem. For example, cold due to viral infection is the most common cause of sore throat. Therefore, if MCNS patients’ sore throat is caused by common cold, they don’t need to worry. This is because drinking enough water and taking correct medications can help to solve this problem effectively.

However, patients with Nephrotic Syndrome usually have a high risk of sore throat because of their low immune ability. Three conditions can result in low immunity for patients with this disease.

One is the heavy loss of protein. Protein leakage is one typical symptom of MCNS, while immunoglobulin is one type of protein that can fight against various infections and protect the body. With the loss of immunoglobulin, patients must have low immunity. Then, bacterial infection can lead to sore throat.

The other one is malnutrition. With kidney disease, patients are always recommended to develop a low-protein diet. However, if restricted protein intake too strictly, malnutrition occurs to result in low immune ability.

The last one should be Steroids and immunosuppressants, both of them will weaken patients’ immune system and increase the risk of infections and sore throat. so do pay attention to them.
