Does kidney puncture harm the kidneys?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Not much harm, just a small amount of kidney tissue is involved. However, you need to tell me what symptoms you currently have to determine if you are suitable for kidney puncture. Suggestions: Generally, kidney puncture is suitable only if the urine protein level is 3+ or higher, and both kidneys are of normal size with no issues in the blood test. Otherwise, it is either dangerous or unnecessary. Visit the Department of Nephrology.
