Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Please ask, what symptoms can kidney disease cause?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be glomerulonephritis. Glomerulonephritis is a non-suppurative inflammatory lesion of both kidneys. Due to damage to the glomeruli, symptoms such as edema, high blood pressure, and proteinuria may occur, making it the most common type of kidney disease.There are many types of glomerulonephritis, including: acute (glomerular) nephritis, chronic (glomerular) nephritis, pyelonephritis, occult nephritis, allergic purpura nephritis (purpura nephritis), and lupus nephritis (lupus nephritis).
For lupus nephritis, it is recommended to first perform a kidney biopsy for diagnosis before starting symptomatic treatment.
