I have HSF. How do I treat protein loss in the kidneys?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Laser therapy does not weaken the immune system, and it does not make autoimmune diseases worse. I will explain clearly so you feel safe. Laser therapy, including dermatology lasers and physiotherapy lasers, acts locally on the skin or tissues.

It does not enter the bloodstream, and it does not suppress or activate the immune system in a way that would worsen a systemic autoimmune disease.

It mainly works by reducing inflammation in the treated area, improving circulation, and helping tissue healing. This effect stays local and does not affect your overall immunity.

Your main concern is your autoimmune condition and the fact that you are losing protein through the kidneys. Protein loss in the urine suggests your kidneys are already inflamed or stressed, which can happen in autoimmune diseases like lupus nephritis or other glomerulonephritis.

This kidney problem is much more important and needs close medical treatment, but it is not caused by laser therapy.

The only caution is this: If your skin or tissues are very fragile because of steroids, immunosuppressants, or kidney issues, then your dermatologist should use the safest laser settings to avoid irritation.

This is not harmful but just a safety measure. So the short answer is: Laser therapy does not affect your immune system, does not worsen autoimmune disease, and is usually safe, but always tell your dermatologist and nephrologist about all your treatments so they can adjust settings safely.

If you want, you can tell me which autoimmune disease you have and what medicines you are taking, and I can give more specific guidance.

I hope this helps, and always feel free to reach out at any time. I am always here to help.

Thank you.
