Immediate post-injection care focuses on minimising local reactions: Apply a cold compress to the injection site for 1015 minutes to reduce pain and swelling Avoid massaging or rubbing the area, which can increase bruising Wear loose clothing that doesn't irritate the injection site Gentle movement of the affected limb may help reduce stiffness Hydration and nutrition support general wellbeing during treatment

Second, targeting eryptosis pathways offers new therapeutic opportunities: strategies to mitigate eryptosis could include optimizing clearance of eryptosis-inducing uremic toxins via advanced dialysis modalities (e.g., hemodialysis combined with hemadsorption [HA + HD] for protein-bound uremic toxins) or novel pharmacotherapies, such as inhibitors of Organic Anion Transporter 2 (OAT2) to block indoxyl sulfate uptake by erythrocytes, antioxidants (e.g., N-acetyl-L-cysteine, vitamin E) to counteract oxidative stress-mediated eryptosis, or modulators of Ca 2+ signaling (e.g., NO donors) to stabilize erythrocyte membrane asymmetry
