Childhood hematuria hasn't been treated yet, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Initially, there was hematuria visible to the naked eye for two days. Later, after receiving anti-inflammatory injections, the hematuria visible to the naked eye disappeared, but microscopic hematuria persisted with a + or +++. There was also proteinuria of +2. When checked at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed acute nephritis. After 12 days of penicillin treatment, the urine protein turned to 0, but the hematuria remained at +++. Today, hematuria visible to the naked eye has reappeared. On January 24, 2010, sudden hematuria was observed.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to help you solve the problem. According to your description, the advice is as follows:
1. Inflammation: Including various types of nephritis, cystitis, urinary tract infections, tuberculosis, etc., can be treated with antibiotics. However, if there is a concurrent obstructive urinary tract disease, the issue of urinary tract obstruction must be addressed first.
Advice: It is necessary to determine the cause of hematuria. Various laboratory tests, X-rays, CT scans, and even kidney biopsies may be required to diagnose the condition based on symptoms and signs.
