Patient's question:
My daughter is 13 years old. On August 9, 2012, she experienced dysuria in the morning. The county hospital found 1+ red blood cells. After taking medication, she had hematuria twice at night, and then the medication was stopped. On August 10, at noon, she went to the city hospital for a urinalysis, which showed no abnormalities again. On August 11, another urinalysis also showed no abnormalities. Blood urea nitrogen was 2.90, creatinine was 27.1 (the hospital's normal value is the lowest at 44), and complement C3 was 89.5 (the normal value is the lowest at 90). Other tests were normal. The doctor at the city hospital said it was normal, but couldn't explain the source of the hematuria.Additionally, when my daughter was 3 years old, she had acute nephritis due to tonsillar abscess, which showed 1+ proteinuria and 3+ occult blood. Later, she had 1+ proteinuria once and 1+ proteinuria once. Around the age of 8, she frequently had microscopic hematuria after colds. In recent years, since she has grown older and rarely catches colds, she hasn't had microscopic hematuria. This time, it has reappeared. Is she suffering from chronic nephritis?
Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems likely to be caused by chronic nephritis. It is recommended to take Compound Stone Willow Capsules and Jin Shui Bao Capsules orally for treatment, and avoid sour, spicy, and greasy foods.There are many triggers for pediatric kidney diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a kidney disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
