Patient's question:
Recently, my kidneys have been in poor condition. Mainly, I've been experiencing weakness in my waist and knees, and sometimes my knees are also red and swollen, making it almost impossible to walk. I've taken some light and healthy supplements, but there's been no improvement at all. Now, I've discovered mild hematuria and a bit of tinnitus, with a buzzing sound in my ears.Doctor's answer:
Disease Analysis:Primary: Caused by diseases of the kidneys themselves, accounting for more than 90%;
Secondary: Caused by diseases outside the kidneys, such as: purpura nephritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, hepatitis B-associated nephritis, etc.;
Congenital: Often related to genetic diseases, rare.
Guidance:
Pathological types are determined by kidney biopsy and can be classified as:
① Minimal change disease;
② Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis;
③ Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis;
④ Isolated mesangial proliferation;
⑤ Proliferative glomerulonephritis;
⑥ Focal global sclerosis;
⑦ Membranous nephropathy.
